Sea Lion Tours

  Kane and Rosey made this experience a highlight on our trip around Oz. The experience of swimming with the sea lions was amazing. Something we will always treasure. The sea lions love to dive and swim with us. Highly recommend this experience. Swimming vests were available for anyone to wear. Felt very safe. We had plenty of time. Thanks for the memorable experience Kane and Rosey

  Amazing family business!! We are travelling around Australia with our two kids and this day was one of the major highlights of our trip so far. The owners were fantastic with our two kids aged 9&11 and we all got to swim with heaps of sea lions and had a fantastic day. Thankyou!!

  Kane and Chloe were excellent guides on our trip to see the sea lions in Jurien Bay. Wetsuits are provided to help with the cold waters in August and setup with the snorkels were a breeze. Kane helped out with any issues during the snorkel and pointed out the sea lions when he spotted them from the boat. All round great experience topped off with a hot drink and lamingtons. Thank you Kane for also giving me the GoPro attachment! Highly recommend!

  Fablous tour , crew were very imformative, friendly, nothing was a problem to them. The seal lions were great either swimming with them or just watching from the boat.

  Amazing time swimming with the seals. Plenty of time allowed for snorkeling,the crew were great,nothing too much trouble.

  The tour was fabulous. It’s totally worth it even if you just stay on the boat or swim with the seals.
Boat was spacious and comfortable the skipper is informative funny and has a good choice in music.
In the water the seal lions are very playful and if your lucky you might get a hug. I recommend that you bring an underwater camera.

  Before we got into the water we were fitted up with a wetsuit, fins and a snorkel. At the beginning the water was cold but we got used to it and had fun. We all enjoyed swimming with the sea lions because we got to swim really close to the sea lion pups as they swam out from the island. They were very playful. The sea lions swam and we followed them. Unfortunately the time spent with them was short (because the sea lions got bored of us!) but everyone saw a sea lion. After we got out of the water we were treated to a cup of hot chocolate (Milo) by the friendly staff.

The only thing I think they could improve is if they had a practice snorkel before you jumped in with the sea lions. This would just give you an opportunity to get used to the gear before being in with the sea lions.

  Right from the get go we knew this would be an amazing experience! The crew were so lively and friendly, and they made sure everyone was having fun!
The boat was pumping some amazing Aussie tunes, and the crew pulled out all the stops to make sure we all got up close and personal with the animals.
We honestly want to come back up and do more trips with Turquoise Safaris, because we've never had a guided experience quite like it 🙂

Highlight of our trip!

  From the start, when warmly greeted by the skipper and welcomed aboard, I immediately felt safe, secure, and ready for a great adventure. The boat was lovely, the equipment in very good condition, and the hospitality top notch. Getting into the water and swimming with the sea lions was one of the most unique experiences I've had since visiting Australia. The one that I played with most would swim right up to my face, poke around and grab onto me or my GoPro. It was phenomenal. On the way back to shore we were treated to a warm cup of Milo (or tea or coffee) and some really good Lamingtons. Perfect start to my morning and will not be forgotten. Thank you to Turquoise Safaris for a fantastic experience! More

  I came to the country to dive and drive. I did both things, and it was really nice. The only activity that I didn't plan before coming was knowing the sea lions in the sea, and it was one of the nicest experiences of my life.

The service in the ship was really good. Even the rest of the people went out of the water maybe after half an hour, I could stay with the sea lions an hour more (I didn't had enough) without any rush.

10/10!

  Everything it said it was going to be and more.
Got to swim with sea lions, warm cup with coffee and Lemongtons post swim, towels, snorkels and just a beautiful boat ride. Lyndon was brilliant - provided the music, interesting facts and such a lovely man who made the trip extra fun. Thank you very much Lyndon

  If you plan to swim and play with sea lions, you should only do it with Turquoise Safaris. if don't, we'll you must!
Special mention and love for Rosey, who took it upon herself to go out of the way and help us make the most of the dive.

The experience was blissful. Cheers.

  From start to finish you are made to feel comfortable and like you are in for a fun time. The music was awesome, the boat and equipment all new. You have plenty of time in the water with the most playful, inquisitive puppies of the sea. This is a must do!

  The interaction with the sea lions is great!!
The crew is very informative and great music along the way 🙂

  I did this tour 3 times!!! every time was even better!!! they really are the puppy dogs of the sea, and the couple of the tour are AMAZING, they do everything to get everyone happy in the tour, they even jump into the water and help slow swimmers!
I really loved this experience and would like to do it again!

  Top trip. Good spacious comfortable boat, great interactions with the sea lions which really enjoy playing when you swim with them. Fun morning out, I'll be back

  We absolutely loved this experience!
Kane and Rosemary were fantastic tour operators and created an exciting morning.
The boat is great and the seals, well,absolutely adorable..puppies of the sea, indeed.
Professional and respectful to our environment and wildlife, it's a a big thumbs up from us!

  Thanks for the wonderful tour! It was great! My kids love it. Perfect tour for family w young kids! Recommend must try when you are in Perth and nearby!

  We enjoyed the special interaction of being in the water with these inquisitive sea lions! They seemed just as excited to see us as we were to see them. Our Skipper, Lyndon made the trip relaxed and enjoyable. He was great from the outset. This is a must-do when in Jurien Bay.
