Excursion Snubfin dolphin experience tour at Broome

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Experience the incredibly diverse ecosystem that is Roebuck Bay, and with luck, visit with the snubfin dolphins that call this place home. The extensive seagrass meadows of this magnificent bay are home to a myriad of marine creatures that you may be fortunate to see on this memorable excursion.


Roebuck Bay is home to the world's only resident population of snubfin dolphins. Measuring around 2 meters in length, the snubfin dolphin is much smaller than the more commonly seen bottlenose and was only identified as a unique species as recently as 2005.


Cruise the serene waters of the Indian Ocean, sit back and relax onboard a catamaran while your experienced captain and crew tell you all there is to know about this magical part of the world. See the bay's resident snubfin dolphins in the stunning turquoise colored bay.


Other sea mammals are frequently seen throughout the tour, such as bottlenose dolphins, sea turtles, dugong and the graceful manta ray.


After 2.5 hours of cruising, make the return trip to the pier.
