Join a guided kayaking adventure through Adelaide’s Dolphin Sanctuary, perfect for all skill levels—even first-time paddlers. After a safety briefing and equipment demonstration, set off at a relaxed pace through peaceful mangrove creeks formed over 10,000 years.
Paddle through tidal flats, saltmarshes, and seagrass beds—vital feeding grounds for wild dolphins. While dolphin sightings are not guaranteed, the sanctuary is a known hotspot for them, so your chances are high. Along the way, admire the diverse birdlife and unique ecosystem that thrives in this protected area.
You’ll also have the chance to kayak near hauntingly beautiful shipwrecks from a bygone maritime era, making this an experience unlike any other.
Children must be 10 years or older to participate.. This tour offers a tranquil yet immersive way to connect with South Australia’s coastal wilderness.
Hannah, our guide was very knowledgeable and informative. We were fortunate to see a pair of dolphins (mother and calf) swim past our group and over to another group. After watching the dolphins feeding around us they moved out to the open water. We then explored the mangrove inlets and learned how these provide a breeding ground for local fish. The three hours was about the right length of time for the tour. We were thrilled to see dolphins.
We had such a great morning kayaking here. It was my first time, our instructor Marc explained it really well. Within 5 minutes we saw dolphins, lots of them!! I love how they respect the wild dolphins by staying back. Beautiful creatures. All the staff were super friendly. They have suncream and mosquito repellent avaliable to use. And water. Such a beautiful location too!
Lewis and Fiona were excellent guides, very knowledgeable and entertaining.
Paddy was an amazing guide, we could tell he really cared for the wellbeing and safety of the dolphins and was very knowledgeable about them and the wildlife and current
THE ABSOLUTE BEST TRIP!!!! Such a calming nature loving experience I’m booking again at a later date for my husband and I. Didn’t see dolphins which was fine they’re wild animals but we saw so much wildlife & learned so much about this side of the ocean I didn’t even think about the dolphins. Alex was amazing, very knowledgeable and relatable!! Highly recommend!!
