Whales and the Sydney Skyline, what’s not to love?
Our afternoon cruise had a stunning sunset with multiple pods all calmly heading North. We were treated to a close encounter right as we turned to head home and couldn’t be more grateful!

See you tomorrow whales!

A day for some very exciting Fluke action! Our first cruise of the day found a very busy patch of the Tasman Sea, with Whales in all directions. We got incredible tail throws and some slapping on the surface from one whale, and some beautiful cruising with another pod.

We’re heading back out again now, and let’s hope for even more amazing behaviours from these beautiful whales!

Very high traffic on the Humpback Highway today! Pods of whales everywhere. They all seemed to be making the most of the big swell and wind pushing up from the South, as they were all keeping their heads down and pushing North very quickly! It was amazing to see so many around and it makes us incredibly happy to see our whales thriving and looking healthy on the long trip! ... See MoreSee Less

Let's hope no more end up getting tangled in shark nets like the other couple have😥

How can we track where they are so we can whale watch?

We saw some jumpy humpbacks on our 12pm cruise! 🚀🐋

Only 25 minutes into our cruise we found a pod of 2 adult humpbacks heading North. We counted at least near 20 breaches + the tail throws as an added bonus.

Hope you had an amazing long weekend.
Were running 7-days a week, so please dont hesitate to join us out there!Image attachmentImage attachment

Some fantastic action on the Tasman Sea today! Lots of whales, including some fast moving pods making their way up North, we had some amazing behaviour with a few massive tail throws!

We’ll be out again tomorrow and can’t wait to see what the day brings!

Wow! What an afternoon and what a day it's been on the Tasman Sea!

We had a pod of two humpbacks over 1 kilometre off Manly this afternoon and what an energetic pair we had swimming by us + what a treat that sunset was! ☀
Started with some tail slapping which resulted in multiple breaches from both whales, each taking their turn at crashing in the waves 🚀🚀

We still have openings for this weekend's cruises, so we hope to see you out there to catch our humpback mates on their Northern migration.

Pretty cool indeed! The humpback whales are so energetic 🚀

Wow Mark

Heres a little peak at our 12pm cruise today 👀 🚀🚀

We were following a pod of 2 humpbacks just off Bondi that were heading 
North on their annual migration.
Towards the end of the cruise, we saw lots of tail slaps and then some big breaches which was still going as we left 

Were seeing some beautiful weather at the moment, the suns out and the sea is almost like a lake out there.

Hope to see you out there this long weekend!Image attachmentImage attachment

That’s awesome

After two days of rough seas, it was like a lake out there this afternoon! Some very chilled out whale traffic on both our cruises today, and while they were playing hard to find, the whale sightings are definitely increasing!
We have a beautiful big tail throw from one of two whales spotted on our first cruise, and some beautiful synchronised dives from our evening pair!

Conditions are looking good for the weekend and we can’t wait to see what will happen on the humpback highway!

Another from last nights incredible evening cruise!

We still can’t believe how good that was, and we’ll have to savour it over the next day or so as the big swell moves in. We’ve had to call off the trips tomorrow but it’s looking good for the weekend! 

We’re seeing lots more active whales out there now so if you’ve ever thought of coming whale watching we suggest you book it in soon!
