Whale & Dolphin Watching
Always keep one eye on the water as the chance of seeing dolphins is pretty high! Stroll along the foreshore, climb the lookouts and don’t forget whale season each year for spotting Humpback mothers and calves. To get up close and personal or relax on the lake maybe a cruise is more your style. We recommend local suppliers Amaroo Cruises.
