One beautiful cruise that will always in our memories! We we blessed with great viewing of whales. Some were closer to the boat and others were seen in a distance. We enjoyed delicious carrot cake and coffee on the trip bay to Jervis bay. We really recommend this trip if you want to relax, enjoy a cruise on the water and be blessed with great sightings.

We absolutely enjoyed our morning out...the captain was fantastic with his persistence in finding whales for us and the beautiful older lady was absolutely beautiful..helping the people with sea sickness etc. I will definitely recommend 👌 you to every one and it was great value for money.

Was an amazing morning on the water, only got a few glimpses of the whales, but the boat trip itself was great, a fair few people being sick which were being looked after really well, the crew were extremely helpful & deserve more money🤣 thanks so much for a great experience.

The boat was giving clear 360 degrees views from any of the 3 levels. Punctual shore departure and return. Friendly crew. The whale views where fantastic and I will definitely revisit the place with the same boat.

Glide through Jervis Bay's turquoise waters twice daily, watching 40-ton Humpback and Southern Right whales breach just meters from your vessel during their May-November migration.

Experience whale behavior from multiple vantage points—feel the spray as they breach above water, then watch their graceful underwater movements through viewing windows and live camera feeds.

Sail past the powder-white sands of Hyams Beach, beneath the towering 90-meter cliffs of Point Perpendicular, and alongside the dramatic rock formations of Booderee's "Hole in the Wall."

Gain insider knowledge from marine experts who'll identify different whale behaviors, explain migration patterns, and answer all your burning questions about these magnificent creatures.

The cruise was fine, just our day was spoiled because of incorrect time on tickets. We have two young children that we're looking forward to a show that we missed because of you and lost our money.

Unfortunately we chose a day with rough sea and we could not get out of the bay to where the whales are.
