We have many more animals for you to see, but not enough space to show them all here, so perhaps you should head on over to meet them yourself! You can see our goats, ponies, llamas, alpaca, peacocks, guinea fowl, dogs, chickens and ducks (sometimes with chicks and ducklings too!), rabbits and guinea pigs, pheasants, and even our very own special wallaby ~ the list is practically endless !!!

Take a look at our photo gallery to see who you can spot before you get here and meet them in person.

There is also a small flock of coloured sheep on the farm, and if you’re lucky there may just be some cute lambs for you to see and bottle feed too (seasonal)

Our animals love to be hand fed, and it's great FUN to feel their velvety noses at your fingers!

There is plenty to do and see here at the Kaikoura Farm Park, and we are always happy to help make your visit as enjoyable as possible! Parents can sit in a viewing area and watch their children play in a safe environment, or wander round with them and share the experience.

All the animals have their own personalities, and all enjoy the attention and cuddles from the children.

You're welcome to bring picnics or BBQ's with you on your visit. We've a lovely decking area and picnic benches for you to enjoy your time, relax, and marvel at the glorious view of Mt. Fyffe.

BIRTHDAY PARTIES
We also cater for children’s birthday parties where they can play with the animals (or we can take the animals to children’s homes). It's a birthday they will never forget!
