We swam with EcoSeeker and it was outstanding from start to finish. Steve, the owner and captain, has clearly grown up in and around these waters, and his respect and care for the environment and wildlife is obvious in everything he does. Phil was superb — calm, attentive, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate.
We did get in the water and had a short dolphin encounter. It wasn’t long — but honestly, it didn’t matter in the slightest. We were so enthralled by everything we saw and experienced that it didn’t dampen our enjoyment at all. The whole trip was picturesque, informative and delivered in such a calm, respectful and personal way that we came away literally overwhelmed with joy.
We’ve previously done the dolphin swim in Kaikōura, which we also loved. That was brilliant in its own way. But this felt different — more intimate, more personal, more connected to the place and the people.
It was exceptional value for money and, without exaggeration, one of the very best experiences we’ve had in three months of travelling around New Zealand.
A huge thank you to Steve and Phil — what a privilege to share your patch of ocean with you.

我们参加了EcoSeeker的游泳之旅,从头到尾都棒极了。老板兼船长史蒂夫显然是在这片水域长大的,他对环境和野生动物的尊重和关爱体现在他做的每一件事上。菲尔也非常出色——沉着冷静、细致周到、知识渊博,而且充满热情。
我们下水后与海豚进行了短暂的互动。时间不长——但说实话,这丝毫不影响我们的兴致。我们所见所闻、所经历的一切都让我们着迷,这点互动丝毫没有影响我们的享受。整个行程风景如画,内容丰富,讲解方式也十分平和、尊重且贴心,让我们最终收获了难以言喻的喜悦。
我们之前在凯库拉也体验过与海豚共游,那次经历也很棒。那次体验自有其精彩之处。但这次的感觉截然不同——更加亲密、更加个性化,与这片土地和这里的人们也更加紧密相连。
这次旅行物超所值,毫不夸张地说,是我们三个月新西兰之旅中最棒的体验之一。
非常感谢史蒂夫和菲尔——能与你们分享这片海洋,真是莫大的荣幸。
