What You Might See On Your Cruise

  • Seals – In the winter months we see them lazing about on the rocks and occasionally swimming in the kelp.
  • Bird life – Sea birds from the majestic Gannet to the wonderful blue penguin.
  • Marine Life – either via snorkeling yourself and getting up close with the abundant fish life in the marine reserve or using our viewing tube from the side of the boat.

  • Dolphins – these wonderful mammals visit the area on occasion. No guarantees that you will see them, but we will keep an eye out on the tour.
  • Orca – Orca visit from time to time, a truly magnificent site if we are lucky enough to have them cross our path.
