Great experience !

Karin_A, Mar 2024
Love this experience! Saw many dolphins and they are spectacular. Sandboarding was fun. Unfortunately no camel rides available. The guide, James is really nice. The only thing that viator could improve is to let us know we could swim in the cruise (the guides may not know since they are not allowed on the cruise) so we could make preparations.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank You Karin for the lovely review. I am delighted that James looked after you so well in Port Stephens. Mike
