It was so much fun! The guides were very experienced and entertaining! I would recommend to all! Hope it’s as much fun for you all!
5Was a hreat experience....
Was a great experience. Did see dolphins but unfort i had to head back after a hour or so due to motion sickness, i never get it but had inner ear issue so i should have taken pills prior. What was amazing is the guides allowed me to swap kayaks and one paddle me back in. Not my finest mo but was great fun still.
1Worst experience
Due to weather forcast it was cancellened and we didnt get refund also after requesting them a lot worst experience at all ....
5Lots of dolphins, a perfect day!
Absolutely brilliant experience from start to finish. Knowledgeable and friendly guides… and we were lucky to go out on a perfect morning. Lots of dolphins all around us, I will never forget this trip, and I would do this again in a heartbeat. Great value for money, don’t hesitate, book it!
5Incredible
The cost of this trip is well worth it. We spent an hour and a half on the water with multiple guides who really knew what they were doing, we got to see so many dolphins. I was nervous going in to it because I was by myself and although I have kayaked before, never in the ocean with the waves but the guys who work there make sure you are paired up with someone and did a safety briefing before and made sure everyone was safe and felt comfortable going out! It was honestly such a cool experience and I can’t wait to go back during whale season. The guides who take you out were a lot of fun!
5Fantastic experience!
Quite physical and you should not be prone to sea sickness The guides were great, with a sense if humour and took great care of us. Lots of dolphins and a beautiful 150 year old turtle! This was the experience of a lifetime. Thanks!!

About Byron Bay
Byron Bay is a relaxed coastal town in northern New South Wales, with surf beaches, a historic lighthouse and the easternmost point of mainland Australia.
Cape Byron, the easternmost point of mainland Australia, has a white lighthouse from 1901 and a walking track around the headland, where dolphins swim below and humpback whales pass offshore on their winter and spring migrations. The town has a long, gently curving beach, with surfers at The Pass and quieter sand at Wategos. Offshore, the Julian Rocks marine reserve draws divers to see turtles, rays and, in season, sharks.
