Very interesting boat tour around coast and islands of Wilson’s Promontory viewing and learning about local wildlife. Saw sea birds, white bellied sea eagles and their nest, loads of seals swimming and sunning on a rocky island and the amazing skull rock right up close. With a very amusing commentary from our friendly captain Chris.

I’ve been on many cruise experiences and highly recommend this one! Captain Chris is the best, with experienced, knowledgeable and humorous. Chris and Abbey took excellent care of us and helped take photos. The weather wasn’t great on the mainland, but the further we went, the nicer the weather got. Also, we were so lucky to see dolphins!

This is probably the best activity you can do at Wilson's Prom. We have been staying at the Prom for 40 years and thought we had done it all, but this is something new, and it was fantastic. Our pilot and guide, Chris, was 1st class--funny, informative, friendly, clear, knowledgeable, everything you look for in a guide for this type of activity. The boats are very comfortable and safe. You get to see parts of the Prom that are otherwise inaccessible (unless you are the hardiest of bushwalkers). Seeing Skull Rock close up was brilliant, but the highlight was the pod of dolphins that followed us into Norman Bay, right next to the boat. The trip lasts for over two hours and offers great value for money. Just one thing to be aware of: take note of the conditions. We were luck to go out on a day with virtually no wide and little swell. I think it would be a very different experience in rougher conditions. The whole experience was professionally run. A 100% recommended addition to your Prom experience.

We had an amazing time on this tour! Chris and Damien were knowledgeable and entertaining tour guides. We were lucky enough to see a white-bellied sea eagle, penguins, seals and dolphins on our trip. A beautiful way to experience the southern most parts of Australia, learning a lot about the history and nature, and taking in the gorgeous views. Well worth it!!
