What you can expect

Cruise along the sheltered bays and islands around Rockingham in search of nearly 200 dolphins that live in the area. Once their silvery grey dorsal fins become known, suit up in a wetsuit, mask, and snorkel to dive into the water and get some perfect porpoise playtime.

Meet your captain and crew and climb aboard a sleek dolphin-seeking cruising vessel, and set out onto the beautiful coastal waters of Rockingham to spot the pods of porpoises hanging out in the many bays and islands. Once a dolphin has been spotted, the captain cuts the engines—the signal to the dolphins that playtime is eminent—and the crew helps you to don your full-length wetsuit, snorkel, and mask.

Dive into the water at the command of the skipper and realise that you are surrounded by the slick grey dolphins, and the air is filled with the sounds of whistles, splashes, and joyful laughter. There are no tricks involved, and no feeding, either—it's simply human-dolphin interaction in the wilds of the ocean.
