We are the original & longest-running whale watching company in Kalbarri and have been operating whale watching tours since 1992. Kalbarri is privileged with seasonal visits of the majestic Humpback Whale and the occasional Southern Right Whale. They begin to migrate past Kalbarri from June every year from the food-rich southern ocean to breeding grounds in the warm northern waters.
The whales are seen traveling back south around August en route
to the colder seas to grow and mature. Following the continental shelf,
they embrace the coast as they travel through the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
These majestic creatures play, frolic & bask in the pristine waters of Gantheaume Bay on their migratory route along the West Australian coastline. Each whale watching trip is an opportunity to get close to these gentle giants, witnessing a unique phenomenon right on Kalbarri's doorstep.

Very informative skipper. Knowledgeable regarding the location of whales. Gave plenty of time for photo opportunities. Everyone on board seemed to have a good time

We had the most magical day out whale watching from Kalbarri. We saw so many whales playing around heading south down the coast. The weather was perfect, if you’re up this way, be sure to check them out.

Take your drinks and food as nothing supplied. It’s only 2.5 hours which is the perfect amount of time to see whales and head back in.

The crew went above and beyond from the booking process and throughout the trip, we experienced far more than we could’ve hoped for and they definitely didn’t rush the experience, the captains knowledge and interaction with the audience was excellent

Aydan and Sam were brilliant hosts. They were both friendly and knowledgeable. We were fortunate to see some humpbacks. We got to see some beautiful scenery and taken to see some surfers. Spectacular day out, will definitely do it when we are back in Kalbarri!!

Whale Watching tour was unfortunately cancelled due to unfavourable weather, so was offered a Coastal cruise the previous evening as compensation. This cruise was fine & quite interesting with the captain pointing out places of interest along the coast, but unfortunately we didn't see what we came to see i.e. whales. This is not the fault of the Cruise Company, it was just unfortunate the sea conditions were unsafe.
