Once we arrive at Moreton Island, you will have full use of the Tangalooma Resort facilities for you to spend the day playing pool, swimming or relaxing at the bars and restaurants. To further explore the island or search for the intriguing marine animals of the area, choose one of these additional adventures:

In the afternoon, the “Discover the World of Dolphins” presentation at the Marine Education Centre will give you a full understanding of these enchanting creatures and prep you for the highlight of the day – the dolphin feeding. At sunset, be in awe as the local family of dolphins comes ashore ready for a nightly feed. You’ll watch the dolphins come to feed in the shallow waters of the beach from the perfect viewing point of the nearby jetty.
