Dolphin Watching on Wallis Lake in Forster
A Wallis Lake cruise is a relaxing way to look for dolphins while exploring the waterways of Forster-Tuncurry. With FreeSpirit Cruises Forster, wildlife spotting is part of a scenic lake experience. Dolphins are wild animals, so sightings and behaviour vary and cannot be guaranteed.
What can you see on a Wallis Lake cruise?
Keep an eye out for dolphins, pelicans, black swans and other local birdlife. Your skipper provides commentary about the waterways and wildlife. Bring a camera or binoculars, and enjoy the lake scenery even when animals are out of view.
Combine dolphin spotting with a Forster lunch cruise
Our Discovery Lunch Cruise on Wallis Lake runs for approximately 2.5 hours and includes a two-course lunch, tea and coffee. A licensed bar is available on board. See the booking calendar for current dates, prices and availability.
Where does the cruise depart?
FreeSpirit Cruises Forster departs from Boatshed Number One, 1 Little St, Forster NSW 2428. Check your booking confirmation for boarding instructions and arrive with time to board before departure.
How to enjoy responsible wildlife spotting
Watch dolphins from the vessel and follow the crew’s instructions. This is a sightseeing cruise, not a swimming-with-dolphins tour. Avoid feeding wildlife and keep belongings secure near the water.
