Having such an exciting adventure kept me in anticipation for weeks prior to the visit but at the end of the day I was strangely left a little unimpressed. Sure the crew were great and friendly, the sharks turned up and we had some great encounters. That can not be disputed but.... I was not really aware nor prepared for... More

Did the shark trip with these guys because of the chum and blood free approach. A small company with real passion and innovation it is a pity that young operators like this when they come up with something new big buisness try's to run them out of town. Didn't do the tuna with these guys as I had been sold... More

We did the swim with the sea lions as a family (2 adults and 2 children aged 10 and 12). The experience was awesome and lots of fun, it was a great opportunity to get up close with the sea lions in their own enviornment. The tour operators were great, with lots of local knowledge of the area and during... More

After a minor stuff up with a booked private charter ended up being the only group on the boat (which was 21 of us, so still pretty full). The regular guide was away but the replacements knew their stuff. Boat was great but could have had a bit more ventilation - hard to decide on whether to get a bit... More

Me and my wife did all three experiences with Adventure Bay (Swim with tuna, swim with seals, and sharkcage diving). We were very impressed with both the professionalism and the warmth of the crew. They made sure everyone on the charter had enough time to enjoy all the experiences. We liked the fact that AdventureBay is sensitive on the tours... More

I have done many amazing things in my life but swimming with the Great White Sharks would have to be up there with the Best. Watching these incredible creatures of the ocean cruising within metres of the cage was truly amazing. The lack of berley brings the Sharks up to the cage in a no aggressive mood and Matt has...

I originally just booked the shark cage diving for my husband's 30th, but we ended up doing all three attractions Adventure Bay offers, and so glad we did, the sea lions were by far our favourite. Matt and Stacey made our adventure one to remember More
