On our first trip of the day we found two whales not far from North head who showed off with some awesome tail throws, tail slapping and pec fin slapping. We were also joined by a beautiful pod of dolphins.

On our second trip we came across a pair of humpbacks who treated us to multiple excellent tail throws and repeated tail slapping as they made their way past Manly beach.

On our last trip today there was a big change in the weather as a squall came through making for an exciting trip! We watch a single whale who swam right beside us on its journey south. Our trip ended with an absolutely stunning sunset!

On our morning cruise we came across two humpbacks who were surprisingly heading north. At this time of year it’s uncommon to see northbound whales as the majority of them are heading back down to their feeding grounds in Antarctica. They came over for a nice close encounter, swimming under our boat and as they swam away we noticed one of the whales was balancing some seaweed on its rostrum.😉

On this afternoon’s cruise we found a pod of five whales only a mile off Longreef who were heading south. One of the pod did a tail slap and a little while after, this black bellied whale surprised us with a fantastic breach! 🙌

It was yet another stunning day in Sydney with calm seas and lovely weather 🌞

This morning we travelled three miles off Bondi beach towards some whales who were tail slapping. Once we arrived we saw an awesome tail throw and tail slap which was wonderful to watch.

Then this afternoon we made our way three and a half miles off Manly to a beautiful pod of three humpbacks who were calmly cruising south. 🐋🐋🐋

It was a beautiful warm and sunny day for the first day of spring and it didn’t take us long to find whales only both of our cruises.

In the morning we found three separate pods of whales. We witnessed some great tail slapping while simultaneously having two other whales come right up to our boat, gracing us with their presence and giving us a wonderful mugging.

In the afternoon the first whale we came across put on a fantastic show of multiple breaches and pec fin slapping. We then made our way to a pod of three humpbacks who did a couple of breaches, plenty of pec fin slapping and even showed us two spyhops. 💙💙

Today was a day of wonderful tails with wonderful whales!

This morning we sighted many different whales as well as some excellent tail slapping and a tail throw. We also had a couple of nice close encounters.

This afternoon we found a whale as soon as we came out of the harbour heads who came over for a close encounter and showed us a lovely little spyhop. We then made our way four miles out and saw a few different pods who showed off with a couple of awesome tail throws and tail slapping. We ended off our cruise with a large pod of energetic dolphins who surrounded our boat.

On our first cruise today we found two whales less than mile off North Head and they delighted all on board with some fantastic tail throws.

On our midday cruise we were spoiled with an amazing mugging! We had two beautiful big whales who were very interested in our boat, swimming around and eyeballing us and even surprised us with a magnificent spyhop.

On our final cruise of the day we spotted a breaching whale who breached and head lunged continuously on our approach and when we arrived treated us to a few more wonderful breaches.
We then ended our afternoon with a stunning sunset.

On our morning trip we made our way off shore and joined up with two beautiful humpbacks who were calmly making their way south.

On our midday trip we caught up with whales who were pretty content with cruising south. They then surprised us with a couple of awesome tail throws.

On our final trip of the day we started off watching a single whale just outside of the heads and saw a cool tail slap. We then joined up with a pod of three who were great to watch and finished off our day with a lovely sunset.

The weather was perfect and it was a gorgeous day to go whale watching!

On both of our cruises today we made our way five miles off the Northern Beaches and had some lovely viewings. In the morning we followed along with a single humpback and saw some beautiful flukes and in the afternoon we joined up with a pod of two who were gracefully making their way south.
