5.00Highly recommend the Ocean Safari as you get to see the Island and the fabulous rock formations from the sea. Our guides were fun and really informative on the ancient history of KI. Although there is no guarantee that you will see dolphins the guys searched until we had a pod swimming around the boat showing off a baby dolphin in the pod. The seals were very laid back...sleeping off their dinner. The weather was perfect which really added to the experience.
A ‘must do’ experience

5.00Brilliant. We saw dolphins, seals, and pied cormorants. The captain stopped the boat at various places and gave us information on the wildlife, geology, history etc. The tour was long enough to be interesting, but not too long for the children. The highlight for me was seeing the dolphins, some of which swam towards, then under, the boat. If you get a chance to do this trip, then don't hesitate.
A great experience
