Dolphin Cruises & Boat Tours in Mandurah, WA
Welcome to Mandurah Cruises
Mandurah Cruises runs dolphin cruises, Christmas lights cruises, river lunch tours, sea-to-plate seafood experiences, sunset cruises and self drive BBQ boat hire on the calm waters of the Peel-Harvey Estuary and the Indian Ocean. We are less than an hour south of Perth and our boats depart daily from central Mandurah’s tourism precinct.
Our estuary is twice the size of Sydney Harbour, fed by the Murray, Harvey and Serpentine rivers and ringed by wetlands of international importance. It holds the largest resident population of Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins in Western Australia, along with pelicans, ospreys, black swans and migratory shorebirds. These waters also produce Mandurah’s famous blue swimmer crabs, from the only fishery in the world certified sustainable across both commercial and recreational sectors.
First to inhabit the region were the Bindjareb people of the Noongar Nation. They named it ‘Mandjoogoordap’ ~ meaning ‘meeting place of the heart’. We acknowledge the Bindjareb people and their elders as traditional custodians of this land.
Our dolphins are wild and free to come and go. That is why every dolphin cruise in Mandurah comes with our Dolphin Guarantee: if your cruise does not sight them, you come again free until you do. That is how sure we are.
Looking for things to do in Mandurah? Choose a one hour fifteen minute dolphin cruise, a Giant and Dolphin cruise, a Christmas Lights Cruise, a long lunch on the Murray River, a Western Rock Lobster sea to plate experience cruise, starting from simple lobster lunch to luxurious eight course dining with fine wines, a Sunset Cruise, or a self-drive BBQ Boat through the canals.
Mandurah was voted Australia’s Top Tourism Town in 2023, and it is easy to see why. Welcome to our picture-perfect water wonderland. We know you’ll love it!
Amazing experience! Impressed with everything – the crew, the views, food, dolphins and wildlife. Spectacular and well worth the value. You won’t be disappointed.

Choose your Mandurah Boat Tour
Every cruise here shows you a different side of Mandurah. Some are an hour on the water, some are a whole afternoon with a chef on deck. New to Mandurah, or cruising with kids? Start with our one-hour fifteen minute Dolphin Cruise & Views, or a 2 hour thirty minute Giant & Dolphin Sightseeing Cruise. Want a longer day out? Take the Murray River Lunch Cruise. Want a hands-on, sea to plate experience – try a Seafood Experience, with optional lobster fishing. After something for a special occasion? Look at our Sunset Cruises and BBQ boats.
Here’s what to expect from each:
The staff are so knowledgeable. It’s a fantastic trip around the bay, and seeing the wild dolphins racing along side the boat was brilliant. Thoroughly enjoyed my cruise.
