Seal Colony
A rough walk over the rocky peninsular of Kaikoura with a difficult entry. Swim through a kelp forest and rock formations with swim throughs and small caves to explore. With many entry and exit points this dive site can be enjoyed many times.Surge and swell can make this dive tricky especially the entry and exit.
An abundance of cold water fish species live here including Wrasse, Cod, Moki, butterfish, Crayfish, Eels, Nudibranchs and if you’re lucky a local Seal.
