Phillip Island High Speed Sea Caves Boat Tour with Seal Sighting
Description
There is no other boat like this in Australia. The Thundercat doesn't just power through the water, it jumps it. Just 1.5 hours from Melbourne, your 30-minute ride takes you along the wild coastline of Cape Woolamai to places simply unreachable by land: the granite quarry, the dramatic sea caves, and Bird Rock. From time to time you'll also spot seals lounging on the rocks or playing in the surf. Your Captain delivers live commentary on the island's landscape and history. What stands out is how personal it is. Not happy with full throttle? Your Captain reads the group and adjusts. Young kids or someone nervous? Start slow, build up, and by the end they'll be asking for more And here's the part that surprises most people: you won't get wet. All the speed, all the adrenaline and you step off completely dry. Tick it off in the morning and spend the rest of the day exploring the island. This half-hour trip fits neatly into any Phillip Island itinerary, morning, midday, or afternoon.

An amazing experience and Brendan was a fantastic guide. He made the whole experience from the music to local knowledge. Kids loved it.
Brendon was a great tour guide, he made the experience so fun and memorable. I would highly recommend if you are a thrill seeker, as you zip around the ocean and if you enjoy seeing beautiful views of nature including the ocean, caves and wildlife.
