    Sail with the dolphins

    Come and sail with bottlenose dolphins. Meet their crew; they are keen to meet you and to share their knowledge of Port Stephens Marine Park and its beautiful wild life. They really enjoy seeing their guests meet the local dolphins. With over 100 bottlenose dolphins in the port there is a 99 per cent success rate in dolphin sightings. Have a close encounter from their bow net or get in the water to enjoy a ride in the boomnet.

    Sundowner Sail

    Sail and party with Imagine! Take advantage of the afternoon breeze, it's the best time of the day for a good sail. Colours are at their best always changing with the bay looking deserted and very beautiful… Great for superb camera shots. The crew celebrate the end of a long day at sea so don't expect long commentary, instead they will play some good tunes on the PA… Good music, good friends, relax, sail the bay, jump in the bow-net with a free glass of champagne or beer.
