Ideal location for feeding Dolphins

We booked an Accessible room for one night on our week long road trip from Brisbane to Airlie Beach. The room was exactly what we expected and ideal for one night, which enabled us to explore the sleepy towns of Rainbow Beach and Tin Can Bay. The highlight of our trip was feeding the Dolphins in Tin Can Bay.
