What To Expect

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

Our whale watch tour was a completely amazing experience for our group. The clean comfortable vessel and excellent staff took us out through the heads of Jervis Bay, past the light house where we saw the abseilers coming down the cliffs of Point Perpindicular, out to the open sea. We soon saw whale action in the distance and went over toward them. A pod of inquisitive humpbacks circled the boat and entertained us for the next 40 minutes displaying their tails and tummies, seemingly as interested in us as we were in them! A truly exhilarating and memorable experience!
Awesome whale watching experience

Captain Hamish and crew were awesome. They extended the two hour cruise to increase the chance to see more whales. We’d seen six whales already but not close. But in the extra time we saw a mother, baby and carer close by, surrounded by dolphins.
Whale watching wonder.

It was a fantastic experience, and had a friendly, informative, helpful crew. It made for a memorable experience. The onlty thing I could suggest, would be a little more time out for the viewing. 40 min each way takes away from the spectacular time we had. Otherwise, just a lovely day!
