What you can expect
Witnessing dolphins and seals playing in their natural environment is so often a life-enhancing experience. And you don’t have to travel far! You can make friends with these intelligent mammals just a short distance from Melbourne, at the picturesque seaside village of Sorrento on the Mornington Peninsula. Your adventure begins with a safety briefing on board the boat, followed by the journey out to the on the beautiful southern waters of Port Phillip Bay. See wild bottlenose dolphins, explore the southern reaches of Port Phillip and enjoy the playful fur seals. Highly trained and experienced crew introduce you to the rich diversity with an emphasis on safety and environmental awareness. Open water vistas unfold as Victoria’s richly woven early white history and the fortifications protecting the early settlement are explained. This truly is the marine adventure of a lifetime. This experience is part of our Low-Footprint Adventures range because it’s ECO certified by Ecotourism Australia.
