The Dolphin Discovery Centre

A not-for-profit marine education and conservation centre located in Bunbury, featuring an interpretive centre with interactive displays, aquariums, and touch pools. The newly upgraded facility offers multiple ways to experience marine life, including a cylindrical tank with puffer fish and stingrays, educational displays, and an underwater cinema dome. The centre also includes a beachfront café with ocean views and a gift shop.

Stand-Out Feature:
The wild dolphin interaction zone, where visitors can observe dolphins in their natural habitat right from the beach. When dolphins are spotted, a bell rings to alert visitors. The centre follows strict feeding regulations, limiting feeding to 350 grams of local fish per day to maintain the dolphins’ natural foraging behaviours.

Top Tip:
Plan your visit for the morning when dolphin sightings are more frequent. For the best experience, combine a visit to the interpretive centre with a 1.5-hour Dolphin Eco Cruise in Koombana Bay. Don’t miss the interactive activities like the “Design Your Own Dolphin” station where kids can create and display their artwork on the main screen.
