Important Dolphin Facts:

Bottlenose dolphins live in small groups called pods. They live in temperate and tropical regions, mostly along coastal areas and mid ocean. The size and appearance of bottlenose dolphins vary according to whether they live inshore or offshore.

Dolphins have two forms of communication:- VOCALISATION & ECHOLOCATION. Vocalisation is used to communicate with other dolphins. Echolocation is used for detecting objects in the water. A clicking noise is sent from the dolphin's forehead (melon) that rebounds off an object and back through the dolphins jaw bone, where it is interpreted in the dolphin's brain. The dolphin knows how far away the object is by how long it takes for the echo to return, and how large the object is by the strength of the echo. Echolocation from a dolphin is so sensitive it can detect the heart beat of a child inside a mother's womb, yet can increase the strength of the echo to stun small fish.

Dolphins belong to an order of aquatic mammals known as cetaceans. There are 37 species of dolphin and porpoise world wide. Thirteen species of dolphin's live in Australian waters, though only one type of dolphin lives in one area all its life, the Bottlenose Dolphin, of which 100-150 reside in Port Stephens. All cetaceans are protected species.

Dolphins love to ride a boat's bow-wave. The pressure wave at the front of a boat gives them a boost. They dive, weave, kick and splash. This gives people a good chance to look at them. Dolphins are grey above and white below. If you see one that looks white it is probably swimming upside down. They do this when mating.

Dolphin Watching Rules:

~ Two boats are allowed near the pod of dolphins at the same time
~ 30 minutes maximum time spent with each pod of dolphins
~ Do not disrupt or harass the dolphins
~ Let the dolphin come to the boat, do not chase the dolphins
~ Do not approach the dolphin from head-on or behind
~ Keep noise to a minimum
~ No feeding or touching

Testimonials:

~ "I went on a Dolphin watch cruise for the first time in my life on the weekend. I have to tell you I am still on a high. I am the type of person who is a bit nervous of boating adventures. I first started off not looking down into the water and when the dolpins came to our boat I have to say I was up hanging over the bow of the boat watching these beautiful creatures of the sea. It was the most amazing time I have ever had on the water. Thanks , the staff and service was excellent." Mary J.(Penrith, Austraila)

~ "our company again used the Cruiser to "wine & dine" 50 of our customers & suppliers. To a person the comments were highly complementary of the cruise & especially your crew. They go out of their way to ensure a good time is had by all. See you again next year!" Jim O.(Mayfield, West Australia)
