The Bushtucker Canoeing Tour (5 min)
I have done this tour several times, and have loved it each and every time. It combines a healthy days excercise at a peaceful pace, with magnificent scenery, good company, an interesting walk up to the caves, visiting the haunted paper bark swamp, loads of history and a meal that you certainly won't forget. Is there any more ketchup for those witchetty grubs?

Naturaliste Charters Whale Watching (35 min)
From May through September, protected from strong north - westerly winds by Cape Leeuwin, the gentle conditions of Flinders Bay make it perfect for whale watching charters in the region.
Each year, the Southern Right and Humpback Whales can be seen off the coast as they undertake one of natures longest migrations to the warmer equatorial waters in the north. Whale watching charters offer a truly memorable encounter with the whales, dolphins and New Zealand Fur Seals from the nearby colony in Flinders Bay. Landlubbers can even witness these giants and their antics from the shore.
See also Seafari Charters for quotes on Whale Watching.
