2-Hour Wildlife Boat Tour
Be inspired by Nature’s menu
At a glance
Want to immerse yourself in the natural wonders of southern Port Phillip Bay, but would prefer to stay dry? This tour is a favourite for families with young children, allowing them to partake in an exceptional wildlife experience without the challenge of swimming or longer hours offshore. We do not stay as long at locations without swimmers, instead spending more time on the move exploring the area.
Check-in 30 minutes prior to your tour’s scheduled starting time and meet your crew.
Step off the boat with a deeper understanding and connection to Melbourne’s Beating Blue Heart and its iconic wildlife.
These tours are available to book online during our summer peak period. If a tour is not scheduled on our online bookings for a date you are interested in, please contact our office.
