South Pacific Helicopters Aftershock Adventure

This forty-minute scenic flight travels through the Clarence River Valley and up into the mountains for a landing at the turquoise waters of the newly formed Hapuku Lake, created during the 2016 earthquake. This trip showcases the unique geology of the Kaikoura area, and shows you some of the effects of the incredible earthquake that triggered over 20 faults to erupt, changing the landscape and environment forever.
Some of the sights you can see during your flight include the Papatea Fault, which is visible along the coastline heading out into the sea, and the coastal uplift which was up to 6 meters in some points.
