Animal Encounter Dampier

Step aboard our industry-leading 9-metre Gemini RIB for a full-day ocean adventure through the spectacular Dampier Archipelago, with a strong focus on spotting whales during their annual migration.


This 6-hour tour is built for those who want to get up close with nature. When in season, whale watching becomes our top priority. These powerful and majestic creatures pass right through our waters, and from our fast, stable vessel, you’ll be in the perfect position to witness the magic. While wildlife can never be guaranteed, whale sightings are incredibly likely during the cooler months, and when they’re around, we go looking.


Beyond the whales, the Archipelago is teeming with life. Turtles, dolphins, manta rays, dugongs, sea snakes, birdlife — we actively seek it all. Between wildlife sightings, you’ll have time to explore remote islands, relax on secluded beaches, and dive into some of the clearest, bluest waters in WA.


Our Gemini RIB is globally known for its stability, comfort, and safety, making it the ultimate ride for covering ground (and ocean) quickly, safely, and in style.
