At 3:15 pm you can attend The Discover the World of Dolphins presentation at the Eco Centre, or simply explore the island at your leisure until sunset when you can make your way to the jetty for the wild dolphin feeding program.
Witness a majestic pod of dolphins visiting the shallow shore and see them play together until it’s time to be fed. Follow an expert into the shallow water and hand-feed fish to a wild bottlenose dolphin, assisted by the Dolphin Care Team.
