Latest Sightings

The Mandurah waterways have been a popular place for dolphin's in the last couple of weeks with the Bouvard Cruises crew sighting dolphins on most of their cruises. Sighting pods of one or two solitary dolphins to pods of up to 15/20 dolphins in the estuary.

Nikky and her calf as usual have been a regular sight for crew and passengers on both the "Dancing Dolphin" and "Super Cat". The dolphins have been quite playful chasing the boats throughout the estuary and even jumping vertically out of the water infront of the "Super Cat".
Australia Day has been and gone and every year in Mandurah all the locals get in their boats and join in the parade through the Marina, canals and estuary. This year we were also joined by approximately 20 dolphins in the estuary. Six dolphins came over the the "Dancing Dolphin" to say hello and even joined us for a swim on the bow whilst others in the pod chased fish in the shallow water along the bird sanctuary.
