This was an excellent whale watching experience. The boat was a good size providing room to move around to see the whales. The staff was great, in particular the guide provided great detailed information. We were extremely fortunate that the morning we went we saw 4 pods of a mother and calf. The calves were very active with multiple breaches. We saw many whale tails as well. The breakfast on the way out of the harbour was tasty and a good way to start the outing. We will do this excursion again if we get back to Sydney.

This is a very well-organised whale-watching company. The staff, the lunch and the cruise were all excellent. The tour guide was very informative and we learnt a lot about whales. We saw humpback and sperm whales!

The crew did a great job explaining what the whales were doing and ensuing we all got to see them. Going in mid Oct we saw to calves. The water was a little choppy, so take your motion sickness meds.

Absolutely one of the best tours we have ever been on, and we go on a lot of them. They gave us so much information on the whales and made it so interesting. Loved everything about it. Food was great!

Luggage storage nearby was $8AU per bag, but convenient. Double decker boat didn’t feel crowded, and lunch was great. Commentary was pleasant and informative. We saw so many breaches that the boat lingered longer than usual. I’ve heard from others that the morning tour is a bit underwhelming and today was no exception according to the crew, so afternoon is a must!

We had a fantastic day, staff were friendly, well organised, boat was clean and well presented,. We saw whales, 3 of them, they breached several times, swam, played near the boat. It was awesome. Highly recommend this one, lunch was fantastic too.
