Description

Whale Watching Cruise – Humpback Migration Experience

Step aboard for an unforgettable journey off Sydney’s coast as you witness the spectacular annual humpback whale migration. Departing from the Eastern Pontoon at Circular Quay, right outside Searock Grill, this cruise takes you into the heart of the Pacific Ocean where thousands of humpback whales pass by on their long journey north.

Feel the excitement as these gentle giants breach, tail slap, and glide beside the vessel — a powerful display of nature at its finest. With over 30,000 whales expected this season, and populations growing each year, there’s never been a better time to experience this breathtaking encounter.

Whether you’re a nature lover, photographer, or first-time visitor to Sydney, this whale watching tour is a must-do seasonal highlight. Knowledgeable crew will share insights into whale behaviour, conservation efforts, and the species’ incredible recovery from near extinction.
