Eyre Peninsula

ATDW pixel
Embark on an interactive tour of the pristine waters of the Eyre Peninsula to interact with some of the most intelligent marine mammals on earth, in their home, at their invitation. Small groups
of no more than 20 guests ensure a more intimate encounter with these incredible animals.

Board their expedition boat for an intimate half-day adventure within the safe and shallow waters of Baird Bay. Begin with a short cruise to Jones Island, the natural home and habitat of our sea lion friends. As you moor in chest-deep water, the sea lions will come to you in their time, on their terms. We do not feed them, but simply join their aquatic playtime in the calm and protected rockpools surrounding their home. Then venture to another nearby rockpool to experience ultimate tranquility, swimming alongside friendly and majestic dolphins.

The experience concludes back on land. After a hot shower and time to freshen up, an onsite restaurant offers an al carte dining and drinks menu with regionally-inspired dishes featuring freshly caught seafood and local produce, available for purchase. Sip on local wines and soak in the sun's inviting rays as the unique moments from your underwater experience become core memories.

It's an experience unlike any other, suitable for children and adults alike.

Wetsuits, snorkels and masks provided. In-water assistance is available as required.
