The tour operators was great and provided lots of information. He did try to find dolphins but we didn’t see any.
Boat was modern and safety instructions provided.
We did see fur seals but there are way better seal experiences at Seal Bay and Flinders Chase NP.
Not long after departing Christmas Cove dolphins were sighted off the stern.
What a delight to watch the dolphins in their habitat close up. A highlight was seeing them catch a big fish.
Seals were also observed later in the cruise lazing on the rocks in the sun.
A wonderful experience. Thank you David and Thomas for you care and expert comments.
Although the dolphins wouldn't cooperate for a swim, the seals certainly did. They are now our favourite sea mammals
Great fun and great value for money.
Our group wasn't too big so it was quite a personal experience.
Have to say that we were pretty lucky as due bad weather, our boat trip of 75 mins was cancelled but on the day before we are to depart Kangaroo Island, they have a slot in the AM before we board the ferry back to mainland. It was great atmosphere and crowd size was decent, abt 8 participants on board. We got a great view of the Dolphins swimming around the boat a couple of times and also the pilot took us close to see the Seals lying on the rock. Have to say the Pilot knows his geographical position well to see these Dolphins.
We were blessed with calm waters and beautiful views, and before long we were surrounded by wildlife. Seeing dolphins play right alongside the boat was a true highlight, and the seals basking on the rocks were adorable. The whole tour felt relaxed yet full of adventure, and the crew went above and beyond to make sure everyone had the best possible time.
If you’re visiting Kangaroo Island, this is a must-do. It’s the perfect mix of scenery, wildlife, and genuine hospitality—an experience you’ll remember long after you’ve left the island. Highly recommended! 🐬🌊🦭
The pristine waters of Backstairs Passage and the rugged coastline seen from seaward make the two hour Ocean Safari well worthwhile, but the dolphins make it very special. Elijah and Bonnie make a great Skipper and Deckie respectively, apart from a minor 550 nautical mile navigational glitch confusing the SA mainland with Tasmania ..but we did make it back in the end.
Had such a great time and felt super lucky not just to have had the opportunity to swim with dolphins and seals but to also see a couple of whales.
We were super lucky and got to see dolphins, seals and very rare sea eagles.
Weather was cool and very windy. Beautiful coastline.
