• Moonshadow-TQC Cruises - Begin your journey on the traditional lands of the Worimi people in the serene coastal village of Nelson Bay. Embark on a 90-minute Dolphin Discovery Cruise with Moonshadow Cruises on the stunning turquoise waters of Port Stephens, a true marine paradise. This remarkable natural harbor is home to approximately 140 bottlenose dolphins, who will captivate you with their playful and intelligent behavior as they frolic around the boat or ride the bow waves. Keep an eye out for other wildlife, including pelicans, sea eagles, the occasional seal, and humpback whales during the winter months.

This $10 million project has been co-funded by the NSW State Government and the Port Stephens Council to provide care for sick, injured, or orphaned koalas with the goal of releasing them back into the wild.

Join your guide on the Sanctuary Story Walk, along a flat 250m pathway with large koala sculptures that educate about koalas and their natural habitat. Visitors can explore the $5 million Koala Hospital, which directly contributes to the long-term survival of the wild koala population in the Port Stephens region. The final attraction is the Sanctuary SKYwalk, a 225-meter elevated pathway with viewing platforms in the treetop canopy, offering a rare opportunity to see one of Australia’s most iconic marsupials in the wild.
