Dolphin Swim Australia

Adventure and Outdoors Tours

Dolphin Swim Australia provides the only permitted wild dolphin swim in NSW and the first wild dolphin swim of its kind in the world! The wild dolphin swim occurs offshore with swim leaders who are trained to take our guests through the most amazing experience of their lives with energetic and inquisitive oceanic dolphins!

This unique activity provides a thrilling experience where guests are so close to the dolphins that they feel like they are a part of the pod and are able to witness true dolphin behaviour!

Each tour includes training with a professional, fun and dedicated team, all necessary equipment (wetsuit, mask, snorkel and safety harness), an educational commentary, a four hour cruise aboard a beautiful 52 foot catamaran, a light breakfast and above-water photos which are taken throughout the morning and are later posted on Dolphin Swim Australia’s Facebook page from where guests may copy and/or share the photos.
