We know every corner, cave, and cavern in the Cabbage Tree Bay. In order to have a better relationship and understanding of the wildlife and nature here, we like to bring people on a tour of the bay to educate people on what the ocean has to offer us, so that we can better understand why would want to protect these areas.
