The best way to explore Augusta’s stunning natural beauty is on a River Tour aboard the Dolphin Discoverer, departing from Ellis Street Jetty - just 400m from town. The cruise takes you past historic sites, riverside homes, and East Augusta, revealing a landscape rich in birdlife, fish, and marine mammals. You'll spot everything from sea eagles, pelicans, and black swans to the resident pod of bottlenose dolphins, often seen playing near the boat.
The journey winds through Hardy Inlet’s shallow, biodiverse waters and into the Blackwood River, with views of secluded picnic spots, paperbark forests, and nesting darters. Private charters can include swimming, fishing, or a riverside BBQ, with the option to explore further upriver or connect with local wineries like Glenarty Road or Hamelin Bay Wines.
