Dolphin and Seal Encounters - approx 4 hour tour -30 usually morning tours - 9.30 am - 1.30pm (sea conditions are better in the morningWe have had a high success rate with dolphin sightings - fabulous opportunities to view and to swim - then heading back to Whale Island (Moutohora) to swim with the friendly Kekeno seals - Adult $180 pp swimmer - includes snorkeling gear $150 watcher Child $10 x their age - ie 1 year old $10, 5 year old $50 - swimmer or watcher We have some children's wetsuits - if you have your own please bring it. :) Note: Our tour is not a guaranteed viewing or swimming with dolphins or seals. The open sea is a big area so while we do our very best to spot dolphins some trips end up having no dolphins - the seals usually make up for this. Some trips, we may not be able to swim with dolphins - they may have babies, be feeding, going too fast or breeding. While we are able to be up close, swim and enjoy the marine life, the care of dolphin and seals natural activities come first - we are observers of the beautiful waters in and around Whale Island (Moutohora) - but can participate too.
