Overview

This dolphin and seal cruise is an experience not to miss. You can observe the amazing wildlife from the comfort of the boat and will never forget this amazing experience. Join in on the fun and excitement of visiting Port Phillip Bay to experience its seals and dolphins in their natural environment! Just off the coast of Sorrento, you will have the chance to see these amazing creatures at their playful best. We cruise to Chinaman's' Hat, a local spot where the ever curious Australian Fur Seals are waiting to show you some amazing sights. From here we cruise to Popes Eye Marine National Park for a look at the Sea Birds, where your guides will share with you some interesting facts about these amazing birds. From there on, we cruise in search of the resident Bottle Nosed Dolphins. There is no need to jump into the water; the captain's technique will place you right next to the action. Please note this tour is combined with the 3 hour swim tour so swimming guests will be onboard.

Amazing Experience – Highly Recommend

Published on Feb, 2025

! Our family had an absolutely fantastic time on this dolphin sightseeing cruise! From start to finish, the experience was enjoyable and well-organized. The staff were incredibly attentive, friendly, and informative, sharing interesting facts about the marine life and making sure everyone had a great time. We were lucky enough to see multiple pods of dolphins playing in the water, which was an incredible sight, and we even spotted some seals! The whole experience was breathtaking, and we couldn’t have asked for a better outing. If you’re looking for a fun and memorable adventure, we highly recommend this cruise!

Polperro were amazing, the team so knowledgeable and friendly. We were put onto their boat last minute, which saved the day. My partner swam and loved it, said the experience with the seals was incredible. I sat safely on the boat and enjoyed every minute. So many up close on the boat of both seals and dolphins. Was the perfect amount of time, lovely hot drinks and scones. We will be back as bring out boys for this years birthday presents.

Published on Jan, 2023

The captain was very. knowledgeable and followed the dolphins giving a very rewarding experience. it was fantastic watching the ship divers bring the dolphins in.

Exceeded all my expectations.

Published on Feb, 2022

The crew were amazing. Great communication and very professional. All were happy to answer any question and accomodate any need. Luckily all the passengers seemed like lovely people. It felt like a very shared experience. My mum whose 82nd birthday it was had a look of pure joy on her face. Especially with the hot mocha and watching those beautiful dolphins and seals. Thank you all for a totally memorable experience.
