AUTUMN 2022 schedule : The Petrel Station pelagic seabird trips (Tutukaka, New Zealand).
– 30th April (Saturday) – TRIP FULL
– 9th May (Monday) – TRIP FULL
– 22nd May (Sunday) – TRIP FULL
In autumn, as the weather and oceans cool down, it’s migration time for the seabirds heading up from the southern oceans so there’s potential for some scarcer species passing through, and also a good variety of albatross species show up in the area. Most of the local summer breeders depart on their migration, and the local winter breeders return and begin to build in numbers as well. And there’s still usually a few Grey Ternlets around till the end April.

– Costs and booking details
– Seabird species seen and seasons info
– Info about the at-sea sighting research project (and how you can help)
– Trip details and trip reports
– Private charter trips

The best way to experience these seabirds is out on the ocean, in their world, so get in touch if you’re keen for a great day out with some stunning seabirds

Re: AUTUMN Tutukaka ‘Petrel Station’ Pelagics : MAR to MAY 2022
Hi all
I've still got some places available on a couple of upcoming autumn seabird pelagics to the 'Petrel Station'. The autumn months of April and May are prime migration time for seabirds heading up from the southern oceans so there's potential for some scarcer species passing through.
– 30th April (Saturday) – only 1 place left
– 22nd May (Sunday) – 5 places left
Let me know if you’re keen for a great day out, or if you have any questions about the trips.
Cheers
