Our Very Own Research Vessel!

Thanks to our sponsors, the Cape Byron Marine Park Authority, GoSea Kayaks and Bunyips Outdoor camping store we now have our very own research vessel… A Hobie Odyssey kayak! After a little getting used too, and a few man overboard incidents, we now have the capacity to paddle out into the bay anytime and collect valuable data on the bottlenose dolphins around Cape Byron in their natural environment.
