Get up close and personal with wild dolphins in their natural habitat from the comfort of the "Temptation" catamaran!

Highlights

  • See dolphins in their natural environment
  • Beautiful coastal cruise on-board Temptation
  • Enjoy informative Marine Biologist commentary
  • 100% success rate of spotting dolphins
  • Temptation is the winner of the South Australian Tourism Hall of Fame

Temptation's Dolphin cruise is an absolute must do while visiting Australia.

This dolphin watch experience allows you to see these fascinating creatures up close and personal in their natural habitat, whilst our knowledgeable Marine Biologists inform and educate you on their fascinating interactions with the Indo-Pacific bottlenose and short beaked common dolphins.

“Temptation” is a 58ft colossal sailing catamaran. As soon as you board, the professional and enthusiastic crew make you feel welcome and also excited about the adventure you are about to encounter. Their love of dolphins shows as they brief you about what to expect from the cruise.

Sometimes within minutes you get to see the first dolphins of the day, which seem to come out of nowhere to play and frolic around Temptation’s hulls. They don’t even go looking for dolphins; the dolphins come to the vessel. Please be assured the dolphins are NOT fed or coaxed in any way. They are wild dolphins that know the vessel and know they are not in any danger.

The dolphins seem just out of reaching distance, enabling you to enjoy and capture on film their playful displays, a unique and unforgettable close up encounter with dolphins.

Pas de chance

Le personnel est professionnel mais pas forcément très jovial. Mais quand même nous avons passé un très bonne matinée.
