One beautiful morning during our last week in Jervis Bay, we decided to take a boat tour of the Bay. The Bay has a ton of wildlife (second in Australia only to the Great Barrier Reef). Bowen Island at the mouth of the Bay is almost completely over run with Penguins and whales/dolphins are also frequent residents of the Bay. Unfortunately for us, the Whales are seasonal & it was not the right time for us to see them. So off we went in search for some dolphins in the wild.
We were delayed leaving waiting for a group of tourists driving in from Sydney.

 |
| It didn't take long at all to find some! |
 |
| It was a large pod - the captain said probably 40-50 Dolphins |
 |
| Some of the Dolphins swam along side the boat |
 |
| We got to see them up very close along the boat - Kalyssa was so excited! |
 |
| So close we could see theirs blow holes & eyes! |
 |
| Tilman was not so excited & passed out |
 |
| Our boat |
It was a great trip and so cool to see so many dolphins in the wild and up close.
