Cape Kidnappers Wilderness Safaris offer three new tour options over private land on Cape Kidnappers Peninsula, one of Hawke's Bay's most iconic landscapes.
No where else in New Zealand is it possible to see so much in one locality. All of the tours weave along high ridges, affording magnificent views of the Hawke Bay & the Pacific Ocean, before descending down a coastal escarpment to some of the finest beaches and dune systems in New Zealand. Here we see seals, penguins and rare shorebirds including the New Zealand dotterel. The dunes also contain many native dune plants, the bones of Moa and other extinct birds, numerous archaeological sites, some dating back 600 years. On the way home, we travel through regenerating kanuka forests, now a reserve for kiwi and other forest birds.
The safety of the Kiwi and other native bird's released, is due to a 9 kilometre vermin proof fence that has been built around Cape Kidnappers Station and the neighbouring properties.
These tours are designed for visitors to experience spectacular scenery, coastal landscapes, early New Zealand history, flora and fauna and some of
New Zealand's rare native wildlife.
