Overview

This is Sydney's only true 3 in 1 whale watching cruise. Including a city sights cruise with live commentary on Sydney's history both past and present, BBQ lunch and whale watch experience on the ultimate Sydney Harbour cruise. Relax while you see the sights of Sydney from the water as you cruise around Sydney Harbour and dine on a BBQ buffet lunch or breakfast (sat/sun only) served on board. Then head out into the open sea to go whale watching, pass through the Sydney Harbour Heads. Your crew will locate and provide informative commentary on the whales and their activity. These giants of the sea once nearly hunted to extinction, it is believed in history the humpback population was once as low as 200 whales.

  • Superbly organised tour

    It's been a great boat trip. Perfect communication beforehand and detailed information on where the meeting point was. We have been very lucky on the tour to see numerous whales "playing" around and coming close to the boat. The brunch buffet was also delicious. Overall you feel well looked after. Would definitely recommend to take something against sea sickness with you as the sea can be rough and some who haven't followed the advice ended up being sick later on the trip.

    Magical moment when u see the largest mammal on earth in person, its very different from TV. Good breakfast. Highly recommend to take the motion sickness pill before boarding.

  • Take your damn sea sickness tablets - even if you don’t get sick!

    Enjoyed this a lot! Great morning out in the sunshine and the crew were fab! Hot tip people - take your damn sea sickness tablets! Even if you think “oh, I’ll be right!…” NO! You’re spending 4 hours on a boat, with strangers! So be decent, take the tablets 😉

  • Great food, great staff, great trip.

    A great trip; food was good too with a great selection. We followed a calf and two adult humpbacks for about 2 hours with several breaches! Excellent. Then a school of dolphins swan next to the boat en route home. Great staff and great fun. Great value for money.

  • see whales from the distance

    We had a good day at sea and we were lucky to have a glimpse of some whales. The ship is a little crowded so when a whale is spotted on one side everyone rushes there and if you are not tall or in the first row you can't see anything as the whale can be seen only for a few seconds before diving again. Even if it was sunny outside the wind at sea make is a little cold so it is recommended to have appropriate clothes and specially a wind jacket if you want to hang outside on the desk and have more chances to see the whales. The crew did an excellent job keeping everyone safe at all times and telling interesting stories about what we were seeing. It was a very pleasant half day to spend while in Sidney!
