The Kayak Tour is up to three hours of fun exploring the Dolphin Sanctuary and
Ships Graveyard Maritime Heritage Trail. One of Adelaide's "secret spots" the
tour is located just 30 minutes from the Adelaide CBD and is an area of
surpassing beauty. The sheltered mangrove lined creeks are home to a
fascinating array of marine life, birds and the Port River Dolphins. The
Ship's Graveyard is a unique feature of the area with spectacular relics from
the past which have been abandoned in the river.

All of which make for an amazing adventure, and best of all, kayaking is the
most environmentally sensitive way to explore and interact with the dolphins.
When the Port River Dolphins come to play it is a memory you will treasure
forever. "Paddling with the Dolphins" has been voted one of the top FOUR MUST
DO activities in Adelaide!
