DESCRIPTION: Enjoy a 2 hour cruise to meet Rockingham's famous wild dolphins and explore the spectacular Shoalwater Islands Marine Park onboard our eco adventure boat. With over 20 years of friendship and trust built up with the local dolphins, we offer visitors a unique insight into the daily lives of these fascinating creatures.
See mothers nursing calves, find out how they use stingrays to catch their dinner or watch the boys showing off for the ladies. Our guides love what they do and will make your experience fun, entertaining & informative! Our eco adventure boat brings a real element of adventure to the experience. It’s a 12.5 metre, high performance, rigid hull inflatable boat- it’s best described as a ‘four wheel drive of the sea’. It provides a superior ecotourism experience because you’re closer to the water and there are no barriers separating you from the environment. Covered open air, theatre style seating puts you right in the adventure- seeing the wildlife up close, feeling every thrill and experiencing the beauty of the marine park first hand.
Includes:
• 2 hour Dolphin Watch cruise
• Weatherproof poncho to wear during the Dolphin Watch Cruise
• Commentary from our expert guides
