Denham to Monkey Mia

Perth, Western Australia

Prepare for a truly magical morning, meeting the friendly bottle-nosed dolphins of Monkey Mia. These wild dolphins come to the shore several times a day – to interact with visitors – more frequently in the mornings. Drop in to the Dolphin Information Centre and check out the interpretive displays sharing insights into dolphin biology, behaviour, as well as the other marine life of Shark Bay. Or spend the rest of the morning swimming or exploring the bay in a kayak. Beyond the beach, you can discover the unique flora and fauna of Shark Bay World Heritage Area through the eyes of one of the oldest surviving cultures on Earth by joining an Indigenous cultural tour. Alternatively, jump aboard a boat tour from Monkey Mia to meet the wild dolphins out in the bay, as well as spotting turtles, manta rays and sharks. The region’s vast meadows of sea grass also support the world's largest population of dugongs.
