About This Experience
The Coffs Harbour Dolphin Watching Cruise is a 1.5-hour small-group wildlife encounter experience aboard the Pacific Explorer cruising south along Boambee & Gallows Beach to meet resident dolphins that are a near-daily sight along this stretch of coastline.
This dolphin cruise from Coffs Harbour leaves from the ‘E’ Finger International Marina on an adventure that follows one of the most rewarding stretches of coastline for dolphin watching. You’ll find wild dolphins surfing the breaks, darting alongside the boat and putting on a show that is very interesting to watch.
These resident dolphins have become accustomed to the Pacific Explorer and you might even spot a curious one approaching the vessel to inspect. You could be visiting with kids, a partner, or a group of friends; irrespective, this is the kind of shared experience that makes a holiday truly memorable.
Light refreshments are served on board, the crew brings fascinating insights into local marine life, and the dolphins… they bring the magic.
The cruise runs from December through to May, making it the perfect summer and autumn ocean experience for families, couples and groups of all ages.
Why choose this dolphin watching cruise:
- Resident dolphins, not chance encounters: The Boambee beach waters are home to resident dolphin pods, making sightings a surety rather than a lucky chance.
- Up close on the open ocean: The Pacific Explorer puts you right in the heart of the action where dolphins are known to surf the breaks and ride alongside the boat.
- Intimate group experience: This cruise gives you a more personal, unhurried vibe where you feel connected to the ocean around you.
- Built for all ages: The boat’s wide hull and low centre of gravity give you a smooth, nausea-free ride that's perfect for families and little ones.
So, if you're searching for the best dolphin watching in Coffs Harbour, look no further. The Pacific Explorer brings you face-to-face with the region's most playful residents. Don't miss your chance to meet Coffs Harbour's most iconic locals; book your dolphin cruise early as spots fill up during peak season!
