Pet friendly experience - Blistering hot day but we were able to find plenty of seating and shade despite a full capacity boat. My dog was even able to spot a dolphin with how freely they swam all around the boat. Fantastic experience!

Incredible experience - we will be back! - We loved this cruise, could not believe how many dolphins we seen, absolutely breathtaking! The cruise director was so informative & loved seeing the beauty of the coastline. Such an incredible experience cannot wait to be back next year when the whales are in town! Highly recommend!

Exactly the relaxing trip we wanted, with loads of dolphins and a great crew - An AMAZING morning! We took the 1030 cruise and it was incredible. We saw two pods of dolphins swimming right next to the boat. One of them had at least 17 dolphins in it. The crew was fantastic, punctual with timing, and the beer and crisps hit the spot! Would do it again next time.

Fantastic Dolphin Cruise Experience - It was a great experience, the family loved it, we saw 6 Dolphins near the bay area and later the ship cruised further into the sea showing the beauty of the bay. The crew were very friendly and good tour operators.

Jet is Bay Passage - Jarvis Bay Passage. Well organised, with an excellent and informative crew. The only downside - a lack of dolphins!

Unprofessional - There are other more seemingly professional companies operating from the dock - perhaps choose them instead !

Poor customer service - We’ve done this dolphin cruise a couple of years ago and liked it, but our latest experience was poor. It was a windy day and a bit choppy, and hard to spot anything. We stopped briefly after the captain said he’d spotted a dolphin but then could not find it anymore. So we went back without spotting any wildlife. Disappointing, but can’t blame the crew for that. We had a similar experience 2 years ago and then received a voucher to board another cruise free of charge. So we walked off the boat and went to the desk to get our vouchers but the staff informed us they do not have this policy anymore. They also said that the captain had reported a sighting so even if the policy was still in place they would not have offered us the vouchers. Even though no one on the boat saw a single animal. All in all we left disappointed, frustrated and unheard by rude and unprofessional staff. I would recommend to steer clear of this company.
