In conclusion, I saw a lot of dolphins! I'm not sure if they were all the same dolphins, but I think I saw them more than 20 times. On the day of the tour, the wind was really blowing and it kept raining, so I was worried that the boat wouldn't sail and I wouldn't be able to see the dolphins. But once the boat entered Shoal Bay, the dolphins just kept coming out. I saw a lot of them from afar, and up close about 5 times. It was cold so I couldn't use the net, but it looked fun to see the locals playing :) After seeing all the dolphins, I was able to ride the boat for about 10 to 15 minutes on the way back. I took a lot of videos of the dolphins, but I regret not being able to capture them in photos. We parked at a paid parking lot near the dock, and considering the time to eat, we paid $14 for 3 hours.
Cruise experience was great and managed to see a pod of dolphins! Worth!
value for money. saw a number of dolphins. the boom net looked fun
It was an amazing experience for me & my family! Entrance is very swift and seamless. The cruise was lovely. My closest encounter with the dolphins!
around 10m encounter with dolphins! about 5min out and we already got to see a few dolphins swimming by! we could also get into the water using the boom net, unfortunately the water slide wasn’t operating on the day.
lucky day to spot multiple dolphins and good captain explaining the scenery around the bay. friendly crew as well.
The weather was beautiful, and we were so lucky to see two groups of wild dolphins. The captain was very thoughtful, slowly maneuvering the boat to the best viewing spot without disturbing the dolphins. It was a wonderful experience!
perfect time with dolphin. we thought no dolphin at that date but finally we found them around the boat. so lovely they are🥳
I was lucky to see dolphins as soon as I went out to sea, and the dolphin family has been playing with the boat.
fun day out for our family. kids aged 12 and 10 had a great time looking for dolphins and enjoyed themselves on the boom net and slide. crew were lovely too.
