    • A Magical Kayaking Experience with Dolphins and Whales in Byron Bay

      I went on a guided kayaking tour with dolphins in Byron Bay with my friends. There were three of us, and I got to kayak with the instructor. The instructions were clear, and the instructor made jokes, which made it fun. We saw dolphins and whales, and at one point, we were very, very close to the whales. It was the most magical moment of my life. I had a smile on my face the entire time and felt very happy that we decided to go. I definitely recommend this activity to everyone. It’s one of my favorite activities on the Australian coast so far. Everything was well-organized.

      It was too dangerous to be out atall. No organisation, none of us knew what was going on. No warning we were very likely to get soaked. Need a good degree of fitness and kayak experience. When we eventually did see a dolphin had to turn around. Guides panicked whole time because not everyone was experienced (no warning they should of been) and it was way too rough and windy. Need better description and clear instruction before go. The whole thing was extremely stressful and anxiety provoking.

      It was a wonderful and lifetime experience for me and my husband. We saw whale for the first time up close and first time we were in the middle of sea. The guide team was wonderful they kept us hook with the whale facts, stories and jokes. We were all laughing, enjoying and working out as well. Would recommend everyone as it was not that scary as it looks 😊
