See the dolphins and explore the Shoalwater Islands Marine Park onboard 100% Wild…. the ultimate eco- adventure boat!
100% Wild
100% Wild is the name given to our brand new Dolphin Watch boat. It’s a 12.5 metre rigid hull inflatable boat (known amongst boaties as a RHIB). RHIB’s are high performance boats used by organizations such as the Navy, SAS, Water Police, Sea Rescue and Surf life Saving because they’re designed for speed, safety, comfort and to go where other boats can’t.
100% Wild was designed especially for ecotourism. It provides a superior experience to a conventional boat because you’re closer to the water and there are no barriers separating you from the environment. In other words, it was made for getting you amongst the action, so beware - this is not another tame river cruise where the action is happening on the other side of the window!
Covered open air, theatre style seating puts you right in the adventure- seeing the wildlife up close, feeling every thrill and experiencing some of the best coastal scenery in Western Australia!
For the 100% Wild experience choose between our Dolphin Watch or Dolphins, Penguins and Sea Lions options below: -
