Today a private guide and vehicle collect you from South Point Beach House for an exhilarating day in the waters of Baird Bay. Jones Island is home to just over 100 Australian Sea Lions and few ocean encounters match their energy.
Fast, agile and irresistibly curious these remarkable animals thrive on human interaction creating a joyful and genuinely unforgettable experience in their natural environment.Following the sea lion encounter the resident bottlenose dolphins offer an entirely different kind of thrill. Powerful and lightning fast they move with breathtaking speed and come close enough that you can hear their high-pitched chatter beneath the surface.
The afternoon takes a more contemplative turn as the drama of the Great Australian coastline unfolds across visits to Talia Caves and Cummings Monument where sweeping clifftop viewpoints and ancient limestone formations reveal the raw and spectacular beauty of this remote coastal wilderness before your private transfer returns you to the comfort of your accommodation.
