Keep a lookout for one of the 200 dugongs left in the region and learn why they are unique to these waters. Spot the three types of resident dolphins within the island channel or out at sea; Common, Spinner or Humpback. Catch a glimpse of the 150+ bird species who frequent our reserve while enjoying a light snack and refreshments. Snorkelling and swimming encouraged.
