Moreton Island, renowned for its dolphin-like shape and abundant wild dolphins, is affectionately known as Dolphin Island. The island's three treasures—wild dolphins, sea turtles, and dugongs—can be encountered through cruises and snorkeling, offering multiple perspectives. With a bit of luck, you might spot all three in one visit. Additionally, the mysterious Tangalooma Wrecks await your exploration.
Our journey departs from Brisbane Wharf, offering hotel transfers in Gold Coast and designated pick-up points in Brisbane. You can not only watch dolphins but also enjoy activities like snorkeling at the shipwreck site, fish feeding shows, and paddleboarding, with some free time to explore at your leisure. A fresh and delicious buffet lunch is provided, along with morning tea in the morning and a fruit platter in the afternoon, ensuring a fun and tasty day.
Moreton Island is a beloved holiday destination for many visitors. Accessible only by boat, the limited number of visitors preserves its pristine beauty. The unique combination of crystal-clear waters and island deserts creates diverse landscapes. The island offers breathtaking views at different times of the day, where the sea and sky blend into one, allowing you to fully unwind and relax.
Dolphins in Paradise's catamaran takes you on an ocean exploration adventure, offering a smoother and more comfortable experience. The onboard experts provide professional guidance while using their expertise to help you spot dolphins, ensuring no opportunity is missed. Besides dolphins, you might also encounter adorable sea turtles, and if you're incredibly lucky, you could even spot the charming "sea cows" (dugongs).
Not far from the coast of Moreton Island, 14 shipwrecks have rested here for years, forming a unique marine ecosystem. Countless underwater creatures await your visit around this beautiful shipwreck area. Experts on board will share fascinating marine knowledge, while experienced snorkeling guides will lead you to explore the stunning underwater world of the shipwrecks, ensuring a fun and safe adventure.
The day's itinerary includes morning tea in the morning, a seafood buffet lunch at noon, and an afternoon tea with fruit platter in the afternoon. Fresh and abundant food is provided to ensure logistical support for your day's activities.
