# Mandurah Boat Tours > Compare dolphin cruises, the pirate ship, sunset sailings and self-drive boat hire from four local Mandurah operators, with live prices and departure times. Key facts: - This site does not sell or take bookings. It compares boats from four independent operators and hands the booking over to whichever one runs that boat - Every price, departure time and seat count shown is read live from the operator's own booking system, so quote the page rather than any figure remembered from elsewhere - All operators are in Mandurah, Western Australia, about an hour south of Perth - Questions about an existing booking go to the operator who runs the boat, not to this site: they hold the booking and are the only ones who can change it - General enquiries: hello@mandurahboattours.com.au ## Operators - White Pearl: Scenic, dolphin and sunset cruises on a 19 person boat from Dolphin Quay, plus private charters.
