8 Reasons You Should Book a Jervis Bay Eco Cruise

If you’re visiting the Jervis Bay area of New South Wales, it’s more than likely you have plenty of activities on your schedule. This region is bursting with things to do, places to go, and adventures to be had. There’s no better place to experience the best of Jervis Bay than right out on the water itself. The bay waters are turquoise and stunning, and the beaches secluded and pristine. The ocean here is full of marine wildlife and we invite you to explore with us. There are countless reasons you should book an eco cruise with Jervis Bay Wild, and here are eight of the most important:

1. You’ll see incomparable views.

From the towering cliffs of Point Perpendicular to the seal colony at Drum & Drumsticks, on a Jervis Bay eco cruise, you’ll see so much of our beautiful local landscape. The ocean here is breathtaking and the coastal formations a wonder to behold. Sailing on our dolphin eco cruise or one of our other tours will take you throughout the bay, giving you the opportunity to see stunning sites wherever you look.

2. You’ll observe and interact with wildlife up close.

Offering whale watching, a seal eco cruise, a dolphin eco cruise, and so much more, Jervis Bay Wild gives you the chance to see and learn about a wide variety of our native marine and bird life. There are many species in this area, and there’s nothing like spotting a pod of dolphins racing alongside you through the water.

3. You’ll have a chance to learn some fascinating local history.

On every eco cruise, you’ll have a knowledgeable guide and staff members who will keep you well-informed and entertained throughout the duration of your trip. Our team members will share knowledge of the region’s Aboriginal history and natural formation, as well as let you in on some surprising facts and tidbits, and perhaps even share some of our best-kept local secrets.

4. Sailing on our vessels is an exciting experience!

You will love your time onboard. Our vessels are spacious and comfortable, and provide unmatched views of the surrounding Jervis Bay scenery. You won’t miss a moment of it from the deck.

5. You can feel confident and happy, knowing you’re supporting earth-friendly eco-tourism.

Jervis Bay Wild is proud of our commitment to eco-tourism. With a focus on eco-friendly practices and environmental awareness, we promote knowledge and care of our earth. We implement these values in everything we do, and you’ll see that when you join us on our next eco cruise.

6. The photo opportunities around Jervis Bay will astound you.

The scenic beauty here is truly second to none. Each of our eco tours last for a few hours, giving you plenty of time to snap that perfect shot. Towering, rugged cliffs, spectacular sea caves, and white sand are some of the landscape snaps you’ll want to catch, and your many encounters with our resident dolphins, fur seals, and other wildlife is something you’ll definitely want to capture on film.

7. You’ll hear tales that will thrill you and see sites that will amaze you.

Jervis Bay and the surrounding area has such a rich history, and is in fact a very spiritual place for many. Your eco cruise guide will regale you with stories of the land and its people and you will hear tales you won’t soon forget. You’ll also see places throughout the bay that are breathtakingly beautiful. Your experience will surely make lasting memories for you.
