Description:

Take your friends and family on the tour of a lifetime as you kayak along the calm waters of the Adelaide Dolphin Sanctuary. Glide through sheltered, tree-lined creeks that are home to a fascinating array of birds and marine life, including Adelaide's famous Port River Dolphins.

A wetland of national significance, the sanctuary is one of Adelaide's best-kept secrets. Start your adventure by hopping onto a comfortable and easy-to-use double sea kayak, with a attentive guide on hand to teach you how to paddle most effectively and—most importantly—help you have a fun time.

Explore the clear, clean waters, float along sheltered mangrove creeks, and visit the site known as the Ship's Graveyard, where you can see more than 20 shipwrecks and listen to a few stories told by your guide. Snap some photos and look out for the mass of native wildlife living in the water and on the shores.

The sanctuary is home to 30 or more bottlenose dolphins, so you have a good chance of spying these charming creatures. Take a slow pace, paddling softly around the dolphins, and watch them frolic in the water for a chance to interact with them. This is the perfect way to spend your time with the kids and the most environmentally sensitive way to see dolphins up close.
