The Dol­phin Dis­cov­ery Cen­tre is a non-profit organ­i­sa­tion com­mit­ted to dol­phin research, edu­ca­tion, con­ser­va­tion and tourism.  The Cen­tre was opened in 1994, and is the first Cen­tre in Aus­tralia ded­i­cated entirely to dol­phin research.

The Cen­tre is located in Bun­bury, a thriv­ing city approx­i­mately 180 kilo­me­tres south of Perth in West­ern Aus­tralia. Fac­ing Koom­bana Bay to the North, the Cen­tre enables peo­ple to inter­act with Bot­tlenose dol­phins in a vari­ety of ways.

There are up to 100 dol­phins liv­ing in the Bay and groups of them reg­u­larly visit the shal­low waters in front of the Centre.
