Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had a great trip even though the sun didn't shine. No one can guarantee that even in Oz!!
The crew were friendly & helpful taking time making sure everyone was safe and warm enough. We did see a few dolphins.
The grazing plates were great and the oysters were amazing!! Could have eaten more.
Can highly recommend, I enjoyed being out on the water again and it doesn't have to be the perfect sunset to enjoy the experience.

Great family owned local business.
Fantastic experience for us and our 2 kids 1 & 4 . The staff were exeptional, welcoming and friendly, helpful and very knowledgable about the area.
The boat was amazing, clean and spacious.
The day itself was a little windy but with the options of both front and back of the yacht didnt make it an issue, we sat at the front to watch the dolphins comfortably, the yacht sails so smoothly.
Quality wines on offer and a complemenary nibble platter made it special.
We will definitely be back and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Coffin Bay. Thanks Sunset Charters!

Could not speak highly enough of this awesome day out on a catamaran Sail boat, we were greeted by the Captain and owner Kalos and his first mate Marty they made us feel so comfortable and happy, we sailed out to a great quiet part of the Coffin bay Harbour where we had the chance to swim and experience dolphins up close then the lovely sail back with lunch and a great selection of wines and other beverages, the service was excellent and the experience was one I shall never forget

We booked a sunset cruise. Arrived at the time they stated. Started off on bean bags with champagne on the deck. The other people that booked didn’t turn up so it turned into a personal sunset cruise! Kalo and Marty were fantastic hosts and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend if you come to Coffin Bay.

I must say this was just one of the best experiences I have had in a long time. To be able to swim and view the dolphins and have them interact with you like they do is truly special. On top of that we were so well looked after on this tour and would truly recommend this to anyone who is wanting a special adventure

Wow,5hours on a modern well equipped catamaran. Over 90 minutes kitted up in 5mm wetsuits and snorkel gear, in the water with the dolphins. Our hosts looked after us with morning tea, and a hot shower and lunch afterwards on the way back to the jetty. They even hoisted the sails for a spectacular and peaceful journey through Coffin Bay. I would put this on a must do list for Coffin Bay.

We jumped off the 40ft catamaran after a glorious morning under sail riding the waves of joy like Burrunan dolphins. We explored a unique pristine environment in complete luxury. Coffin Bay waterway and National Park scenery is stunning. Seeing the rare Australian Sea Lions & Fur Seals up close, playing in the shoals and lazing in the sun was special. The personalised service by Kalo & Emma was like fine dinning at sea. The fresh local seafood served was delicious. I really appreciated how all the produce is from local family enterprises. Sharing the secret life of the Coffin Bay Burrunan dolphins, riding the bow waves under full sail was flipping awesome. Coffin Bay Taste & Explore is one of the best southern Eyre Peninsula experiences. The five stars are truely deserved.
