Departing from Kaikoura Helicopters stunning beachfront helipads, look back upon the township that is wedged between the South Pacific ocean and the Kaikoura ranges.

Experience a birds eye view of the dramatic landscape as you head over the Kaikoura peninsula and track south along the coastline. Keep an eye out over the ocean as the area is known for Sperm Whales, sometimes seen close to the shoreline. 

Look down on the winding road through the Hundalees Hills and over the local winery of Mt Beautiful Vineyard, to then land at the river and board your jet boat. 

Travel up the stunning Hurunui River gorge on a 30 minute return trip with Energy Jet, which is owned and operated by Tim Loughnan, a fifth generation sheep and beef farmer in the area. 

Tim expertly navigates Energy Jet's late model Kwikkraft jetboat through shallow river braids and dramatic canyons at heart-pumping speeds, with 360-degree spins and drifts thrown in for good measure. 

Enjoy commentary from Tim about the interesting history of Hurunui River and North Canterbury as you occasionally pause to soak in your surroundings.

The Hurunui River is the smallest volume river commercially jet boated in Canterbury. This results in a stunning combination of shallow river braids, beautiful canyons and large boulder fields that you will experience on every energizing trip. Experience all that the beautiful Hurunui has to offer with Energy Jet.

On completion of your jet boat experience, board your helicopter for the return flight north via the Hurunui river mouth and along the coast to Kaikoura.
