Immerse and introduce
Immerse students in nature and introduce them to Melbourne’s Beating Blue Heart.
Polperro Dolphin Swims’ ‘conservation through education and interpretation’ philosophy is an elemental aspect of our identity. Our method is to entertain greatly, while educating gently.
Connect and inform
We believe that through showcasing the natural wonders of Port Phillip Bay, introducing students to its’ iconic species and informing them about the ecosystem that sustains them in an immersive, fun, safe and inclusive fashion, we can connect them to place and awaken a need to know and a need to care.
Whether it be a sightseeing or swim tour, Polperro endeavours to make our trips not only environmentally informative, but also environmentally supportive.
