Day 2: Monkey Mia / Carnarvon
As our accommodation is located right at the dolphin interaction beach, you can spend extra time at the waters edge this morning where you may encounter a visit by the famous Monkey Mia dolphins. As they are wild, dolphin appearances can't be guaranteed but it has been a daily ritual for many years. Following this, an optional cruise on board the 'Shotover' is available (at own expense). This 60 foot sailing catamaran is the perfect way to view the playful dolphins as they ride the bow wave and interact with one another in the wild. Following lunch we visit the incredible Shell Beach and Stromatolites before we return to the highway again, traveling north to the subtropical town of Carnarvon for 2 nights.
