What to expect
You'll board a spacious, air-conditioned vessel with multiple viewing platforms. The skipper and marine biologist guide the boat in search of Snubfins while you settle into premium seating with drinks and appetisers on rotation. Wildlife sightings vary—dolphins aren't guaranteed, but the bay's birdlife and seascapes alone justify the outing. As sunset approaches, the light shifts from gold to amber across the water. If conditions suit and it's boom-net season, crew members assist passengers into the mesh net suspended over shallow water for a refreshing dip.
Good to know
Stairs board the vessel; unassisted mobility limits apply. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. Spinal injury sufferers should reconsider. BYO drinks welcome except red wine, homemade alcohol, and bottled spirits—crew will chill and serve your own beer and white wine.
