Head off with the breeze as you cruise through Monkey Mia - be prepared for the wind in the hair, a dash of salt spray and a tonne of fun!

Join Monkey Mia Wildsights on the longest cruise of the day and you'll have potentially the best opportunity to see the most wildlife. See how many of this list you can check off: dolphins, dugongs, turtles, stingrays, sea-bords, sea-snakes and sharks.

• The Best Kept Secret About Monkey Mia - It is brimming with a huge variety of wildlife for most of the year. There are dolphins, dugongs and huge loggerhead and green turtles. In the warmer months they’re joined by sea-snakes, sharks (the largest a 4.5 metre tiger shark), sting-rays, flying-fish and the long-tom, a fish that skips across the sea on its tail. Rare highlights are manta rays.

• The Best Way To See The Magnificent Wildlife - Cruising with Monkey Mia’s wildlife specialist; the internationally famous, fabulous, 60’ pure sailing catamaran, Shotover - “the nature boat.”

• See The Animals Underwater - So you don’t miss a thing, you’ll be given the use of sunglasses fitted with specially treated, tinted lenses that eliminate surface glare to give you the best view of the animals underwater.

• Designed Specifically For Wildlife Watching - No deck cabin to obstruct your view of the animals or separate you from the action. The animals are outside. To see them, you need to be out there with them. There’s ringside seating around the boat and no cabin to obstruct your view or separate you from the action. You’re always in fresh air and in touch with your friends and your crew.

• Protection From The Elements -Weatherproof clothing will be provided to all passengers. The sails and a rear deck awning provide shade. There’s a refreshing seawater shower if you really want to cool off. Plus free sunscreen.

•Environmentally preserving tomorrow, today - Shotover is primarily wind and solar powered and has virtually eliminated noise, air and water pollution, so your enjoyment isn’t affecting the animals or the planet.
