Kaikoura is one of the very few places in the world where you can see, close inshore, large whales and a diverse range of other marine mammals throughout the year. This personal account of Kaikoura's remarkably rich marine life has been written and photographed by Barbara Todd, one of the founders of "Nature Watch". Along with outstanding photographs, and much information, this book contains many personal anecdotes from Barbara's years of close contact with Kaikoura's whales and dolphins.
