Things to See & Do
Sea All Dolphin Swims generally operate from October through until May.
The tours usually start with snorkelling at Popes Eye Marine National Park and its shallow and protected waters are teeming with coloured fish and marine life making it the ideal place to brush up on snorkelling skills.
With new found skills and a heightened sense of adventure, head off to the Seals at the Chinaman's Hat Seal platform where some 40 odd seals are waiting to share their water world with you.
Just when you think it couldn't get better set off in search for the dolphins and usually find them not to far away. Swimming with dolphins is controlled by strict codes and patient instructors will ensure that both snorkellers and dolphins benefit from the experience.
While sharing these unforgettable experiences with passengers from all over the world, you can listen to expert interpretation from friendly crew as they describe the remarkable wildlife and special features along the way.
The three and a half hour cruises are suitable for all ages, sizes, and abilities and particularly for couples, families, school groups, and social and special interest groups.

For adrenalin junkies, aircraft nuts, thrill seekers and those who want to experience The Edge.

This is a seriously strong and powerful machine capable of speeds over 400 km/h and G force loading up to +6. Try and lift your arms!
All flights are tailored to your capabilities - starting off very gently with some big lazy turns and building up gradually until you are hurtling vertically upwards at full power. Between each manoeuvre your pilot will confer with you before entering the next. Think you will feel sick? Not likely! The mild to wild approach means over 98% of people complete all the manoeuvres.
All aerobatic flights include a high speed low level jaunt up the stunning coastline of the Bellarine Peninsular - enjoy the thrill of seeing the beaches and lighthouses flash by before you break off and start your climb to the aerobatic area.
High Definition widescreen DVD's of you experience are available, a must for those who simply will not believe you!

This is the opportunity of a lifetime - few people get to experience anything like the power, speed and exhilaration of a Warbird Air Adventure, and the best part - it is affordable! Don't spend thousands on a Jet Fighter experience when for a few hundred you get the same G forces and manoeuvres in the incredible CJ-6A aircraft.
