We spotted dolphins playing and roaming around the cruise, and even saw seals on our way! It was amazing 🐬 there was plenty of seats to roam around.

Unfortunately we didn’t see any dolphins on our tour. We were taken to a spot where the seals & gannets live so we did see those animals. The speaker system on the boat did not work well so we could not hear what the guide was saying . Nice enough boat ride but I wouldn’t go again.
Best 90 min cruise you can do

This cruise was the best thing we could have done. We travelled with our 5 and 8 yr old kiddos. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Be sure to make your way to the front deck to enjoy the most of this cruise.

Best experience. Loved the cruise and the ride. Water was shallow and kids enjoyed watching dolphins and seals from very close distance.
Incredible dolphin sighting boat tour!

Incredible trip of dolphin watching, unbelievable experience. I had a friend visiting from Liverpool UK and he wanted to see dolphins so I took him on this tour. We saw so many playful dolphins who swam right up to the boat. The captain and guides were so very knowledgeable, educated and focussed on safety for people and dolphins. I highly recommend!
Awesome day

Was an amazing tour. Saw heaps of seals but unfortunately no dolphins, despite the best efforts of the crew. Would definitely do it again.
