Again, our day started with beautiful flat conditions on the ocean and whales everywhere we looked, with five minutes of leaving the river mouth we spotted our first pod for the day. We had a mum and calf just cruising along with not a worry at all. In the distance we...
Again our day started with whales spotted before we had left the river mouth with four different pods. One mum, calf and escort were all very active, tail slapping and the calf breaching for the first 25 minutes of our cruise. We had only travelled 10 minutes out from...
What and absolute stunning day on the Sunshine Coast… and it was well and truly an amazing day out on the water with spectacular water conditions. Our first whale sighting for the day was an inquisitive mother and her calf just off Point Cartwright. These guys...
Whales, whales, and more whales today! We were surrounded by humpbacks in all directions, and stopped counting after 20 different pods were seen. Our morning started quiet, with three to four minute down-times, then we picked up a tail slapping, peduncle throwing male...
Weather was true Sunshine Coast weather today. Lots of blue sky and relatively calm seas with conditions staying that way all day. So many whales today! It was like peak hour on the freeway. From the break water to as far as we ventured out some five kilometres, and...
It’s Friday and the whales know it! As our introduction to whale watching this morning we had a mum and calf breaching, tail slapping and tail lobbing just two minutes out from the headland. A big male moved in and the mum’s behaviour radically changed. She quickly...
Our first whale was spotted 2.1 nautical miles off Point Cartwright! A mother and calf came in to say hello as they swam right under our boat. These two stayed around our boat for 20 minutes. The calf was very curious about all the humans waved and whistling at him,...
A more challenging day, weather-wise, though we saw our guests rewarded with a magical display of whale watching this morning. We didn’t need to venture too far to see many pods of mothers and calves with the little ones doing multiple breaches and mothers very...
It didn’t take long to find our humpback friends today – we were surrounded by these amazing creatures on every trip today and watched on as they made their way south on their journey to Antarctica! On all our trips we were able to find them very easily with the...
The morning cruise started off very quiet with the ocean dead flat calm, and the humpback whales talking advantage of the smooth seas by resting or spending long periods underwater. Our best pod of whales were right in front of Mooloolaba beach only 300 metres out...
