Top Jervis Bay Tours, Sightseeing & Cruises

A few hours drive south of Sydney, Jervis Bay National Park is a reserve known for its remarkable sea cliffs and beaches, but many of these highlights are difficult to get to on a day trip. If you don’t have the time for a camping trip, this cruise around the bay is a great fit for any schedule. Head out in the late morning or early afternoon and sail along the dramatic coastline, looking out for dolphins, bird life, and other local animals.

Seeing dolphins in the wild can be hit-or-miss without local knowledge, but this cruise from Jervis Bay increases your chances by exploring known dolphin habitats within the Jervis Bay Marine Park. Travel comfortably by boat as the crew locates pods of bottlenose dolphins—often seen swimming and surfacing close by—while you enjoy clear views from your position on deck.
