One of Kaikoura’s sparser and less-trafficked beaches, Peketa has a reputation as a top-notch spot to see pods of playful dolphins diving in amongst the waves. The surrounding mountains create a magnificent backdrop for swimmers, surfers, and fishermen looking for a little quiet, though be aware that a small airfield and runway does sit beside the beachfront.
