Eastern Australia Trip. Day 7 : Moreton Islands

It wasn't a whale watching season right now, and it only starts early June and lasts until late October. It is one of the must-do/see while you are in eastern Australia. Missed that one but at least we have a reason to come back. The alternative...? Dolphin feeding sounds interesting, though!

Tangalooma Island Resort operates the wild dolphin feeding program each evening at sunset. The nightly attendance of bottlenose dolphins swimming to the beach near the Tangalooma jetty. For those who stayed in the resort or took a day cruise by the resort, they got a chance to hand-feed the wild dolphins!

Early in the morning, we drove to Pinkenba, which took around one hour. The slight traffic in Gold Coast motorway before the journey eased once we merged into state Route 10 heading to Brisbane. We had to be at the Holt Street wharf one hour before the ferry departs for Moreton Island, and we made it! The ferry reached the Tangalooma Island jetty after 75 minutes. It was raining on the island, and in fact, since we arrived in Brisbane.

We received the guest welcoming pack at the registration counter.

Off we go to the Moreton Island!

Getting the room key is best thing; you don't have to worry as they arrange your luggage from the wharf, to your room

The sea was quite rough... mandi kolam je laaa

The Dolphin Feeding Program starts approximately at 7:00 pm during winter. We were at the jetty 30 minutes early. We saw at least 3 dolphins swimming around the jetty. They probably know that the feeding session is about to start. The feel? We really can't wait to get into the water and touch them!

The pied cormorants tried to snatched the fish inside the bucket

We were in the line...!

Here we go...! We shoot couples of videos. As you noticed, we got into another queue when we saw that there was still fish bait inside the bucket. So, instead of once, we fed the dolphins twice!
