It was pretty good, although at the last minute we were invaded by insects and it was completely unbearable to be on deck.

Very good food on the boat. The staff was very professional. We were lucky enough to see the whales and their breaching at 12 o'clock.

Explore the Tasman Sea and discover one of the most fascinating aquatic creatures with this whale watching tour in Sydney.

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Eastern Pontoon at Circular Quay. This Sydney wharf, located opposite the Searock Grill restaurant, is where we'll board a boat for this whale-watching trip in Sydney.

Without wasting any time, we'll head straight for open water from Sydney Harbour, passing by some of the city's most iconic monuments like the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Then, the tour will continue away from the coast in search of these gentle aquatic giants. Keep your eyes peeled! At any moment, you'll start to see how whales elegantly emerge from the ocean and put on a tremendous show. It's an experience you won't forget!

Not to mention, humpback whales are known to pass by this area along their migratory routes, so you're in for a treat. Within minutes, the group will witness majestic jumps while they play in the water.

After a magical whale-watching experience, the group will return to the harbour, after 4 hours of activity.

Lunch Onboard

Regardless of which day of the week you book, if you opt for the 12:15 departure, you'll enjoy a buffet lunch on board. Vegetarian options and other dietary restrictions are available with advance notice.

Breakfast on Weekends

If you do this activity on a Saturday or Sunday and opt for the 8:15 am departure, you'll enjoy a hot breakfast on board, where you can choose vegetarian options and other dietary restrictions by giving advance notice.

Guaranteed Whale Watching

In the event that you do not see any whales during the cruise, you can join another whale-watching cruise for free.
