Looking for a unique and amazing wildlife encounter in Australia? Why not swim with sea lions in Port Lincoln, South Australia?
Join the crew from Calypso Star Charters (world famous for their shark cage diving tours) for an incredible day filled with sun, sea and snorkelling fun!
You’ll snorkel around the amazingly clear waters of Hopkins Island, Blythe Island or Langton Island where you’ll have the incredible opportunity to swim with sea lions – 100% wild and 100% amazing!
Watch as they dart around you, getting up close to “kiss” your underwater camera (which can be hired as part of the tour) and play in your bubbles as you snorkel around the shallow bays that they call home.
This award winning, eco accredited tour has limited weekly departures to help minimise the impact on the sea lions natural behaviour, so secure your spot to avoid missing out!
