World-famous for the wild dolphins that turn up in the shallow water for feeding each day, the beach resort of Monkey Mia, 26km northeast of Denham, now tops many travellers’ list of things to do. The morning feeding session (around 7.45am) can get packed, but often the dolphins return for a second feeding later in the morning.
