I have done this 4 times now (over a 6 year period) and it is always a great experience and always different. It is kayaking so you need to paddle but it is pretty easy paddling. Sometimes there are lots of dolphins and sometimes only a few but the whole experience is sensational. Byron Bay is beautiful most days of... More

3 families took a trip with parents and kids aged from 11 to 14. We enjoyed seeing the dolphins and touring around but the main attention from the guides was to the young female backpackers with little consideration for the limits of kids or their parents. When one of the adult women didn't want to surf into the beach on... More

We found out about the Kayaking by chance and we are so lucky that we did. It was well organised and generous; there was no rush to make it back even when our tour over-ran. As for whales and turtles - they were everywhere. One whale almost knocked one of the kayaks over when it popped up to the surface.... More

Would recommend this company to anyone and even if you saw nothing the scenery and serenity out... More

WOW - this experience is like no other. Byron Bay has so many stunning sights but sitting on your kayak looking back at the Bay is a different perspecive and it should not be missed. It's a great thing to do when the weather isn't great because the dolphins are still out. I also saw a turtle that was massive... More

When we went out on our kayak trip the sea was pretty rough and I was exhausted after about 30min. I continued to paddle but after 2 hours I was really over it. We didn't see any whales and no sea turtles either and towards the end we saw the tip of a dolphin and that was it. Also, right... More

Sam & Rob were our guides - 2 top blokes! Friendly, seemed to love their jobs and took great care for everyone's safety. Saw humback whales from a few hundred metres away - legendary! We went on a rainy miserable day and since we were already wet then why not?The water was beautifully warm. Highly recommended to anyone. More
