Summary:
The stunning beaches and blue waters of the Mornington Peninsula are loved by locals and visitors alike. Protected from the open ocean, the bay side of the Peninsula is the ideal location get wet and meet some local residents on a swim with bottlenose dolphins and Australian fur seals. An early departure from Melbourne city will head directly to the idyllic hamlet of Sorrento, an ever-popular holiday isle for locals and the site of Victoria’s first European settlement, named for the Italian coastal scenery it evokes images of. From Sorrento pier it’s time to board your dolphin and seal sightseeing and swimming cruise aboard the purpose-built Moonraker – Australia’s most awarded eco adventure company. Equipped with snorkels and wetsuits you’ll enter the water in small groups with a guide, as the dolphins swim close by, surfing the waves and playfully showing off.
