Cruise Port Adelaide with a skipper-guide such as Jim, Jason, Chris, or Alex, entering the Ships Graveyard and passing through the dolphin sanctuary and bird sanctuary. Expect maritime stories, possible dolphin sightings, wild birds, onboard toilets, and drinks for purchase.
“Chris and John were very knowledgeable and made the whole experience very enjoyable!”
Join Port River Cruises at Port Adelaide for a 90-minute cruise through the Ships’ Graveyard, Adelaide Dolphin Sanctuary, and nearby bird sanctuary. Guides such as Alex, Jim, Naomi, and Jacob provide live commentary while you look for wild bottlenose dolphins from a small boat with a bathroom on board.
“The different viewing areas on the boat were great to see the sights along the river, and the crew members were very knowledgeable about the area. Seeing the pod of dolphins was a highlight.”
Launch with Adventure Kayaking SA and paddle through the Adelaide Dolphin Sanctuary and Garden Island Ships’ Graveyard. Guides such as Luke, Phil, Pippa, Tim, and Oli teach beginners the basics, lead you through mangrove creeks, and help you look for Port River dolphins, birds, and historic ship hulks.
“Phil and Luke (our instructors) were very knowledgeable not just in kayaking but about the area. We had a lot of fun and the mangroves forest is beautiful. Not to mention the dolphins! You can drive to the place (plenty of parking spaces) or you can catch Uber (up to 15 minutes wait) from Port Adelaide :)”
You’ll paddle sheltered creeks and the Port River with an English-speaking guide, looking for dolphins, birds, mangroves, and 20 historic shipwrecks. Guides such as Tom, Oliver, and Aaron have helped beginners find their rhythm. Bring water, sun protection, insect repellent, and shoes that can get wet.
“It was a great adventure & the guides have plenty of experience & knowledge of the area. I would highly recommend this to people travelling sole or in a group. Head to Port Adelaide after for a cold beverage and the Museums/ history of the area.”
A walk, a graveyard, a crawl or a full investigation.
