Pete the Blue Dolphin skipper and key we're amazing, nothing was left out even though they had 6 people for the experience which included myself and partner. The team had exceptional knowledge and happily shared with their total enthusiasm, which came across throughout the 4 hour trip. Their hospitality and attention to detail is top notch....please, please, please book with Peten and his team! Happy visitors from the UK - Thursday 05.02.26.

We had an amazing time on the boat watching dolphins. And the swim on the Pelican Bank was unique. We highly recommend the tour.

Loved the tour: Peter and Cathy were excellent hosts and made the trip unforgettable. They both have a lot of knowledge about the marine life and the area. We saw a lot of dolphins, rays and were able to swim at the sandy island and hang out in the net on the way back. Highly recommend.

We love sailing with Blue Dolphin when we come to Hervey Bay. They are such a wonderful team and make every experience an absolute pleasure. Safety is a priority and the catamaran is a lovely boat to sail on. A smaller group than other tours in Hervey Bay which makes it a more personal experience. They have a keen eye to spot dolphins and wildlife. A must do when you’re in Hervey Bay.

Had a fantastic time. We were lucky enough to see dolphins playing in the channel before we even hit open waters, and then again when coming back. Crew were fantastic. It was a great experience.

Thank you Jodie & Peter Lynch Blue Dolphin Marine Tours we had an incredible dolphin boat tour around K'gari. We saw so many dolphins swimming and playing alongside the boat — it was truly unforgettable. The crew were fantastic: friendly, experienced, and extremely knowledgeable about the marine life and the history of the island. They shared interesting insights throughout the tour, which made the experience even more special. We also loved the chance to stop and enjoy a swim off K'gari in the cool crystal-clear water. A perfect mix of adventure, learning, and relaxation. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!

Had a great experience on this tour. Great guides and super friendly. The onboard service was on point and more than expected. Very easy going and helpful. Would highly recommend….we did end up seeing a rare species of dolphins which was pretty incredible….and stopping over to have a swim was a highlight. Thank you so much to the team.
