Dolphin Sanctuary Kayak Tour Adelaide
Overview
Join us on a guided kayak tour and paddle where only kayaks can go. Explore peaceful mangrove lined creeks, glide past shipwrecks and keep an eye out for resident dolphins, migratory birds and other marine life along the way. All this only 25 minutes from Adelaide CBD.

All equipment is provided, with tours suitable for adults and children over 10+ (Children 10-15 must be with a parent/adult in a double kayak and must be able to paddle)
