Clearwater Wildlife - Small Guided Tours (10 max) Otago Peninsula
Overview
Fewer People - More Wildlife!
The Clearwater Family Farm is home to more wildlife per square meter than anywhere in Dunedin.
Our tours offer the best chance to see Yellow-eyed penguins, NZ sea lions, NZ fur seals, albatross plus a wide variety of birdlife, in their natural habitat.
Your professionally guided tour of no more than 10 people will take you to our private beach & conservation reserves through our working farm at Cape Saunders on the Otago Peninsula.
A wild and untamed, dramatic environment that we are lucky enough to share with some of New Zealand's rarest species.
Our aim is to give you a truly authentic wildlife experience and leave you with memories that will last for a lifetime.
