Reviews
"We had a great day! The water was smooth and the weather great! We have already recommended this to others! We got some great photos on our holiday but these were the favorites for us! We saw a baby dolphin with its mum, small jumping fish and big crabs walking on the bottom! A great day!" chris, Jan 2009

To have the dolphins come right up to our kayak was a once in a lifetime kodak moment :-)I will recommend this activity to others of all ages visiting adelaide." Leisl, Jun 2008
