What to Expect
Cruising the sheltered shallows of Port Phillip Bay embarking on a once in a lifetime experience. Meet the Australian Fur Seals where the clear shallow waters surrounding the boat are full of friendly and inquisitive seals. See the giant smooth rays glide beneath whilst juvenile seals dart back and forth eager to swim and dive with you. Enter the watery world of the Weedy Sea Dragon, the famous and rare state marine emblem for Victoria. Here you can experience these extraordinary prehistoric creatures up close and in their natural environment. Rest up onboard with a delicious hot chocolate and a freshly baked good Every encounter is unique and we work with the animals to ensure we can have the best encounter without impacting on their lives and behaviour. In a small group of 10, we slide quietly into the water, floating on the surface watching and waiting for the squeaks and whistles to get louder and louder as the dolphins come from all around to see us and swim beneath our group. You can observe families of resident dolphins within a pod, watch mothers train the next generation to hunt and socialise, listening to the amazing sounds as they communicate with each other excitedly.
