We loved the Sea Lion Tour so much, we went back for it a few months later! If you're in Jurien Bay, this is a must. We were initially booked with another tour company who ended up cancelling the day before because they did not have enough people... luckily we found Jurien Bay Oceanic which we were able to book the day before, and that goes on with just 2 guests on board! We LOVED it so much on both occasions, the seals were just like little puppies and kept playing with us, twirling and showing off! They were so curious and would swim around us and peer into my GoPro (so I got some great shots!). The waters are so calm so it's very easy to swim and they even have pool noodles if you're not confident, and the staff will be in the water helping you. The vessel is comfortable (we were able to take on our pram with our 1y old baby) and the ride was pleasant and beautiful. The best thing about booking with them was how amazing everyone of their staff was, the most helpful and nicest people, you could see they really love their job! My husband and I were planning to take turns in the water to look after our baby, but the staff on board offered to do that for us, we were a bit worried at first and kept glancing back but she had such a great time with them! THANK YOU SO MUCH, super duper recommended. Next time we'll do the longer tour!

I recently went on a 2.5 hour sea lion charter with Jurien Bay Oceanic with my partner and 9 year old son. It was a windy morning - but even so the boat trip was quick and really easy. Peter was the skipper and Karri-Skye the manager - they were super helpful and friendly, plus knew loads about the area. They took us to a nearby island (20 mins away) and pointed out the sea lions. As the boat is known to these animals they quickly came into the water to play. It was an amazing experience to be so close to these wild creatures and see them diving and swimming through the water. we all loved it. The boat is big and clean - so cups of tea and a quick hot shower on board at the end were well received. You will probably see dolphins if you do this trip - although they were hiding when we did it! Give them a call - this is a great value for money activity to fit in one morning you are in Jurien Bay

We booked the “Marine Park Experience” tour and had a remarkable trip! Firstly, we would like to thank our tour guides and the skipper for everything. All of them were super friendly, helpful and caring. They provided us background information wherever they could, and always kept the mood up 🙌🏻 Cheers to Fred 🐬 The tour itself was wonderful as well! There are two stops where you go into the water: One to swim with Sea Lions. They are very playful and curious animals who love to come very close to human visitors. The second stop is near a gorgeous calm lagoon where you can see all sorts of underwater life (beautiful fish, corals, sea snails and numerous other animals). The last stop is in a calm bay, where lunch was provided. All in all, we had a wonderful morning and would strongly recommend this tour and the people behind this 🤗

Had an amazing experience out on the sea lion tour today! The Captain, Rory and Nando were all super friendly and made the morning comfortable and easy for all of us! Wetsuits and equipment were quality (thanks for the loan of the Go Pro handle Rory!) plenty of seating for everyone (especially loved the beanbags up on front deck!). Weather was nice and clear and we saw lots of seals jumping around having a great time! Crew were very helpful and attentive taking photos for everyone and helping one of our daughters who was not a strong swimmer to still have a good time and see the seals! Highly recommend this tour, 10/10 thanks for a great family memory guys!!! 🦭🦭🦭

We can't thank Kevin, Fernando and Neave enough. My husband and son, along with a family best friend went on the Rock Lobster Catch and Keep Tour. The tour was fabulous! So interesting to see how it's all done, and then to get to keep some crayfish freshly caught during the tour - ABSOLUTE BONUS! Fernando actually invited the 3 boys for another catch, so they extremely lucky and all of us are very grateful. Thankyou to team on the boat, sterling tour 🙌 Be aware Kevin and Fernando, we have told family and friends in Tom Price about your service, prepare to be bombarded by Pilbra folk on their way through! Many thanks, once again! 🦞👍 (From David, Shaun and Isaac)

Highly recommended! Book now! We had an absolute blast with JBOE and would happily go again. We were the first boat out, the first in the water and we were the last ones back to the marina, it couldn’t have been a better experience. The crew, their boat and the swimming gear provided were all top notch and the seals spoilt us with multiple visits and playing around us with like we were old friends. Note: We had inclement weather and were worried about the rain and chop affecting our experience, it did not! The seals loved it and it almost made them more eager to come play with us in the water. Don't let a little rain deter you!
