Byron Bay dolphins - all year round
There are estimated to be around 1,500 dolphins in the greater Byron Bay area. These are called resident dolphins and will live in this area their entire lives. The species most commonly seen on our tours include inshore and offshore bottlenose dolphins, along with some Indo Pacific humpback dolphins and common dolphins.
Byron Bay Whales - May to November
During their migration north, whales come within 3 km of the coast. During the southern migration they bring their calves into the calm waters to rest and feed. The calves are very inquisitive and playful, they often approach our sea kayak tours with the mother at their side passing just meters from our kayaks.
