Of all the beautiful sights on the Mandurah Scenic Dolphin Cruise, what I enjoyed most wasn’t just seeing the dolphin, but it was sharing the experience with the people I love most. Cruising through the stunning waterways with my five beloved sisters and my son made the day incredibly special. Watching the dolphins appear in their natural habitat brought excitement, laughter, and pure joy to all of us. As life gets busier, moments like these are rare treasures, where family, nature, and unforgettable memories come together. The breathtaking scenery was beautiful, but seeing the smiles on my sisters’ and son’s faces made the experience truly priceless.

The captain and his mate were so kind and very knowledgeable. We had perfect weather and even though the dolphins were shy we enjoyed cruising around the waters and seeing the homes and feeling the breeze. Thank you for a wonderful adventure.

We had a wonderful time with Mandurah Cruises—it was such a relaxing and enjoyable experience for the whole family. The cruise itself was smooth and very scenic. We loved cruising through the canals and seeing the beautiful waterfront homes. The highlight for us was definitely spotting dolphins swimming nearby—it made the trip extra special, especially for the kids. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was calm and not crowded, which made it even more enjoyable. It’s a perfect activity if you just want to unwind and take in the views. Overall, it’s a great experience and highly recommended for families, visitors, or anyone looking for a peaceful getaway close to Perth. We would definitely do it again and recommend to our friends! 😊 And to top it all off, we grabbed some buy 1 get 1 churros after the cruise 😋—such a fun little treat that made the day even sweeter!
