(Note: As the dolphins are wild creatures, their appearance cannot be guaranteed.)

In the evening, relax with a cocktail or a glass of wine and watch the world go by as the sun sets over the bay.

Experiences available between 1 May 2018 - 30 November 2018
Francois Peron National Park 4WD Tour (Monkey Mia)
Adult Price: AUD 215.00 Child Price: AUD 215.00
This is a full day trip adventuring through a spectacular, special piece of earth, right where outback Australia meets the coast. Your tour is a combination of cultural history, sensational scenery, fascinating plants, wild animals and bush survival skills. Includes lunch, morning and afternoon tea, sunscreen, use of binoculars, polarised sunglasses and an expert local guide.
Sail With A Bunch of Animals Cruise (Monkey Mia)
Adult Price: AUD 99.00 Child Price: AUD 99.00
Potentially see the same animals as the morning “Wow! Wildlife Experience” but with a much better chance of seeing dugong since this is usually when we visit the Restricted- Access, Dugong Management Zone, which we are allowed into only once a day. Dugong feed on sea-grass. Shark Bay has the largest sea-grass banks in the world, and its 10,000 dugongs represent about 10% of the world’s dugong population. Although dugongs are shy and extremely difficult creatures to find and approach, we have over the last 14 years developed techniques for getting you close without disturbing them.
Shark Bay Scenic Flight (Monkey Mia)
Adult Price: AUD 225.00 Child Price: AUD 225.00
A 45 minute scenic flight crosses Freycinet Reach to the fascinating patchwork of salt ponds at Useless Loop.
