Snorkel with the Seals
Take in the breathtaking scenery of the Mornington Peninsula coastline before embarking on an unforgettable aquatic adventure. This two-hour tour offers two unique wildlife encounters: swim alongside playful Australian Fur Seals and snorkel above lush kelp gardens in search of the elusive Weedy Seadragon, Victoria's iconic marine creature. Your journey begins in the calm, shallow waters of Port Phillip Bay at Chinaman's Hat, a special platform where over 100 resident seals bask in the sun. Curious juvenile seals gather around the boat, eager to interact and swim with you. Keep an eye out for majestic Smooth Rays gliding gracefully along the sandy seabed below. The adventure continues at a second snorkelling site, home to the enchanting Weedy Seadragon. Drift above swaying kelp forests and spot these rare, camouflaged creatures moving gently through their natural environment. With so much fascinating marine life to discover, this is one of the most immersive wildlife tours in Port Phillip Bay. Your cruise ticket covers everything—lunch, snacks, drinks, marine park fees, and taxes. Please note: This activity is suitable for guests who can swim and have water confidence.
