However, we do not guarantee sightings of dolphins or any other marine life on any given day.
Wildlife: Due to the natural and non-contrived environment in which tours operate, The Operator cannot guarantee sighting of dolphins or any other marine life within the Great Sandy National Park. Nevertheless, our success rate is on average 90% for dolphin spotting on tour and due to the remote location of the tour the chances are high.
The Operator does not conduct any commercial whale watching programs and as such does not guarantee any marine life sightings. However, during the whale migration season, our kayaking Eco tours often can come across migrating whales and the chances of experiencing the whales pass by in season are high.
