Ningaloo Reef is fortunate to host the majestic humpback whales along their west coast migration route. Every year from June until October these magnificent creatures are seen frolicking in the waters around Exmouth. And we are lucky to follow along with them!
Join us for Sunset Humpback whale watching in the Exmouth Gulf and the unique top end of the North West Cape peninsula (including the historical Navy Pier!) exploring the recovering habitats of Bundegi Reef or the Northwest Reef. Setting us apart from the competition is an opportunity to not only see the Humpback Whales, but also to have a unique perspective into the world they live in through our vessel’s large glass panels. Use of a HYDROPHONE allows a rare experience – hearing the whale songs through our speaker system (if any are singing during your tour).
Our 2.5 hour afternoon/sunset tour departs daily from mid-August to mid-October. Your experience is enriched by an interactive commentary from a captain with many years of experience. Free courtesy bus pickup from Exmouth, and light refreshments on-board will ensure that your Whale Watching tour will be an enjoyable experience.
