Introduction
‘Temptation’ is a 58-foot sailing catamaran operating only 15 minutes from Adelaide’s CBD. Temptation Sailing offers a variety of products including Wild Dolphin Swim/Watch Tours, Twilight Cruises, Afternoon Tea Cruises and Private Charters.
Temptation is surveyed to hold up to 50 passengers and is an extremely stable and spacious vessel. Temptation features a fully licensed bar, spacious furnished cabin and a 360 degree front viewing deck.
Temptation is the first vessel in South Australia to be given a dolphin swim licence and has been conducting successful wild dolphin swims from Glenelg, South Australia, since January 2002. Over many years, we have developed a relationship with the Adelaide dolphin population and our Wild Dolphin Tour is possibly the only cruise of its type where we don’t go to the dolphins, they come to us!

SUNSET CATAMARAN CRUISE! Oh. My. Goodness. This was my absolute favourite thing about my first
trip to Adelaide! My partner and I LOVED the views of the sunset, the crew was amazing, providing a bar
and music for all to enjoy. Blankets were provided as it got a little chilly. Could not recommend enough 🙂
Thank you, thank you!

This experience was the best ! A perfect start or end to your day. We chose the sunset cruise and what a
magnificent time we had, the afternoon was fuss free easy going, the bar was well stocked and the staff
were great, there was also plenty of room to shelter from the sun if needed. But take a hat slap on some
sunscreen and enjoy the view. Thinking about it ……DO IT !

Incredible natural experience with Temptation, loved the knowledge they shared about the dolphins. The
crew went out of their way to give us the best interaction with the dolphins and answered any questions
we had about them and their environment! Seeing the dolphins was amazing, they swam right underneath
us!
Kirsty Porteous
Best experience!!! Swimming with the dolphins was absolutely breathtaking 😃 The whole family loved it.
Helped that we had sensational weather and the dolphins were out to play. Amazing crew on board too.
Thoroughly recommend 🤩

We had a fantastic trip this morning! We saw dolphins and calves and were able to swim up close.
Fantastic experience and such a privilege to see such phenomenal creatures in their natural habitat. Our
guides were very knowledgeable and friendly and able to answer our questions. Best activity to do in Adelaide hands down! (I’ve done the swimming with dolphins on kangaroo island which was lovely, however would recommend doing this one as when your in the cargo net it allows you to focus on the dolphins) – if you haven’t been – Go!
Kim Ward
A must do in Adelaide! The crew is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and focussed on the passenger and the protection of the dolphins in the wild. We swam with 2 species of dolphins from the front and back of the beautiful boat. It was a genuine observation of nature. Will definitely do this again when back in Adelaide.
