Fully-dedicated pelagic bird-watching cruises through some of the richest known areas for seabirds in the world.

Pterodroma Pelagics' programme of seabird expeditions fully explores the region's seabird environment. Some are ship-based voyages; others are day or overnight boat trips departing from a variety of key localities around the country. Small group sizes on our trips, with a high participant-to-leader/crew ratio provide an excellent level of personalised service. You won't be neglected on our trips.

"A visitor has only to visit one of the well-bushed off-shore islands to realise something of the richness of the birdlife, exemplified in one curious way by the 1600 km overlap of parrots and penguins." - R. B. (Dick) Sibson

Our programme is expanding!

We have realised the potential for extending our seabird tours into the South Pacific when escorting groups with Kiwi Wildlife Tours. Pterodroma Pelagics will be extending our seabird tours into the South Pacific and offering opportunities to participate in seabird expeditions further afield that will combine research with pelagic birding.
