The exquisite dolphin cruise

5.00It was an amazing experience for our family of four, going out on dolphin watch in the cosy sailboat. The folks knew exactly where to find the dolphins and the kids had an amazing time in the boom net both on the side and the front of the boat. There were only a few families on the trip and we had ample space to explore the views. Also to mention there was complimentary food and beverages. Overall it was a splendid experience.

5.00Hands down the best way to cruise Port Stephens and watch the dolphins. Much more personal than the big cruises. Right up close. Great staff on board. Highly recommended.
Wonderful Trip

5.00Lived up to the promise of seeing dolphins, within minutes of leaving the harbour. Crew were knowledgable and despite the weather it was fabulous trip. Would recommend doing the wet boom ride (it’s not just for kids) you can get just that little closer to the dolphins. Take cash if you want to buy snacks but free tea and coffee.
Great excursion and very...
