Baird Bay Experience – Tour

Baird Bay Experience Ocean Tours
Located in a small fishing village 50kms south of Streaky Bay, Baird Bay Experience offers an unrivalled aquatic experience with wild sea lions and dolphins in the pristine waters of the Eyre Peninsula.

Embark on a wild interactive tour for the opportunity to interact with some of the most intelligent marine mammals on earth, in their home, at their invitation. Small intimate groups, of no more than 20 passengers, mean you get to swim with these wild ocean animals without clusters of people around you, ensuring you get one on one time with these incredible animals.

Jump aboard our expedition boat for a half-day adventure within the safe and shallow waters of Baird Bay. We begin with a short cruise to Jones Island, the natural home and habitat of our sea lion friends. As we moor in chest-deep water, the sea lions will come to us, in their time, on their terms. We do not feed them, but simply join their aquatic playtime in the calm and protected rockpools surrounding their home.

We then venture across the bay for an exhilarating experience, to swim alongside a pod of majestic dolphins. The experience concludes with a regionally inspired meal and a hot shower to freshen up. It’s an experience unlike any other suitable for children and adults alike. Wetsuit, mask and snorkel provided.
