Better than I imagined

We saw more whales than I ever expected — breaching, spy-hopping, the lot. The crew were brilliant and even guaranteed a sighting. Do it!

Humpbacks stole the show

These gentle giants breached so close we got soaked and did not care one bit. The guides were fantastic with the kids too.

Amazing sightings

Saw multiple whales breaching and tail-slapping. Bit of swell out there but the skipper positioned us perfectly for photos. Loved it.

Whales put on a show!

We had humpbacks breaching right beside the boat — mums and calves waving their fins. The crew clearly knew where to find them. Magical morning.

Bucket-list whale watching

Humpbacks everywhere, a calf breaching over and over. The commentary really added to it. Warm, friendly crew and a very comfortable boat.

Great morning on the water

Plenty of whale activity and a knowledgeable crew. Would have liked a touch longer out there but a wonderful experience overall.

By limiting our tours to small groups, we provide space, comfort, and an intimate, personalised experience that larger tours can’t match. Feel the thrill as our expert guides navigate the calm waters of the Great Sandy Straits to bring you up close to majestic humpback whales. On our tours, there is the unique opportunity to swim with the whales, creating an unforgettable encounter before the crowds arrive. Whale swimming is offered for guests who want an immersive experience. Swimming with whales is strictly on their terms and follows our license guidelines, and is not guaranteed on any tours.
