Review:
Arguably one of the most popular attractions in metropolitan Adelaide, the Adelaide Dolphin Sanctuary boasts approximately 400 transient dolphins that come through the sanctuary at one time or another. Meanwhile, there are 30 bottlenose dolphins that call the sanctuary their permanent home.
For animal lovers, the dolphin sanctuary is the perfect place to see wild dolphins in their natural habitat. Wild dolphins that visit the area come through to feed, socialize with other dolphins, play, and even nurse their calves. Other amazing features of the sanctuary include a 10,000-year-old mangrove forest, a saltmarsh, tidal flats and creeks in addition to seagrass. The sanctuary is part of a culturally and historically significant as an Aboriginal and European place of interest.
