Witness the majestic beauty of our migrating humpback whales on this 2-hour whale watching cruise from the town of Huskisson on Jervis Bay. You’ll cruise through the sparkling waters and past the white sandy beaches of the Jervis Bay Marin Park in search of these gentle giants of the sea. From May to November whales in increasing numbers can be found along the NSW coast on their annual migration, and during the months of October and November mothers and calves even enter Jervis Bay for a number of days to rest and bond with their young before continuing on the massive journey back to Antarctica.

This tour gives you the rare opportunity to witness the majestic beauty of our migrating Humpback Whales. Imagine setting off on the immaculate Jervis Bay, on a sunny winter’s day, and having these awe inspiring Humpback Whales greet us on their journey. On the Northern migration we sight whales within a mile or so off the dramatic sea cliffs on Jervis Bay’s peninsula. During the Southern migration, we begin to get mothers and their new born calves coming to rest in Jervis Bay. A truly life changing experience set against rugged cliffs and ancient sea caves

We LOVED this! It was truly magical—breathtaking views. Whales everywhere. It was a bit colder than we expected so bring something warm.

All the staff were friendly. But didn’t meet the expectation. Only able to watch whale’s tale. However the staffs tried their best to show the whale.

Friendly staff. A few whales spotted. The captain tried to get us as close to the whales as possible. Unfortunately, while we didn’t see any breaches up close, we saw a handful of whales bobbing up to the surface for breath near the boat. Mother Nature is in control of this day excursion, but the crew worked with what the animals were prepared to show off today as best as they could. It’s the luck of the draw!

amazing experience! we did this tour before the dolphin tour and needless to say, this was 100% better. the crew were all very passionate and fun, they gave lots of explanations and tried their best to find whales. even though this was a whale tour, we even managed to see dolphins which was amazing!
