It was amazing ! This experience is awesome ; I highly recommend. All the staff is very nice and kind. They are very environmental friendly; which is important during a tour like this. They give lots of information about dolphins. and the swim with dolphin is breath taking :) the boat was also very nice.

We did a tour with them around 2018, i think. I was very disappointed. After we found dolphins, four of us went into the net. In our group, one dolphin swam across us (not in our Direction). I could possibly see him for a split second. One woman struggled because she'd never snorkeled and was scared. It hadn't been a pleasant experience for me either. The boat was very fast and i had some difficulties keeping my head in the best position. What particularly annoyed me and still bothers me is that the second group hadn't seen any dolphins (underwater) and received part of the money back. We, however, only received a voucher after we complained. What use is a voucher if I'm in Australia once??? I'm writing this because it may help others to decide if they want to risk, wasting money and for the company to better communicate what happen when there is no "swimming with dolphins" --Experience. I wish we new this back then.
We had a fabulous experience. Team was very friendly and helpful, most importantly everyone was very knowledgeable about dolphins and the wildlife in the area.
An amazing experience with a super team who are so passionate about what they do. I want to do it all over again (and I just might)! This was a bucket list experience for me and I highly recommend it. Thought I might end up doing this overseas but the fact that I could have this experience in the beautiful country I now call home - well that was just perfect :)
If you really miss travelling overseas, dolphin swim Australia is a great experience that can help with your wanderlust! The team is so respectful to the marine life and the dolphins that there is no ethical dilemma. Highly recommend these guys.
Awesome experience well worth the money. Photos from the boat do not compare to the up close and personal wild dolphin experience from under water. We were extremely lucky enough to encounter over a hundred wild dolphins in this mornings adventure. Thanks to all the friendly crew at Dolphin Swim Australia and Imagine Cruises. An unforgettable experience that is highly recommended. 10/5 for sure!
Unforgettable adventure to spend some time with wild dolphins in their environment. The crew inclusive the owner are nature lovers with respect and that makes this trip all in all so impressive and unforgettable.
It was something great to try in Nelson Bay but definitely follow the “things you need to know”. It is quite windy and cold, even when the forecasted weather was 36’C. Being in open waters the boat gets super wobbly to the point where it your heart dips with the boat or you’re walking around like a drunk. If you’re not good with seasickness, this is definitely not for you. I took a tablet but it still did not help. At least two others were the same as I. The whole trip was quite educational with David being very knowledgable and has great explanations about the dream time, behaviours and interesting facts as to why dolphins are more evolved than humans. What you should know is that this whole experience is through chance. You spend 3.5 hours of the 4 hours in the boat searching for common dolphins - and you can see moments where everyone is just flat. But when you do see some dolphins for like 10 seconds the mood becomes more vibrant. There were dolphins here and there which I would say add up to at most 30 minutes? Getting into the water you have to be fast and agile. Theres a lot of equipment and procedures you need to remember. They have to stop the boat to let you in the water. So, if your group is not fast enough to act, you’ll miss the chance to swim with the dolphins as they don’t stick around too long. You then have to wait again as they search for dolphins until you try again then. Also want to mention Shanon who took care of the seasickers and was great at staging photos for everyone. The whole crew is very friendly and they try to make you have the best experience possible.
