Pick-up and drop-off from your accommodation

My family did a full day whale watching trip with Blue Dolphin Marine Tours, we had a wonderful day, saw many whales and were mugged by a mother Southern Right Whale and her calf. The boat is excellent, the skipper and staff very welcoming and looked after everyone very well. Definitely recommend.
