Amazing experience, very memorable! - We thoroughly enjoyed the Whale Watching Tour by Naturaliste Charters. The boat was very comfortable and the tour started on time. The crew is very friendly and caring. They gave us a lot of information about the humpback whales and their behaviour. We enjoyed the commentary from the very passionate and knowledgeable team including the interns who also captured some beautiful photographs which were then put up on their Facebook page the same afternoon. The sightings were beautiful. We were glued to the ocean looking for these beautiful creatures to emerge from the waters. Overall, a very memorable experience.

Day out with the whales. - We went as a Seniors group of 9 and had a wonderful experience. It wasn't a great day weather wise but we saw plenty of whales and the crew gave us great commentary. We would thoroughly recommend this experience.

Great experience - It was great experience, just being so close to the whales, seeing the breaching, fin slapping and tails just sticking up in the air. The skipper maneuvered the boat around so everyone had view's when there were whales. The staff which included a marine biologist shared lots of information about the whales. The boat was a great size, clean, and in good condition and had great overhead protection so we never got wet, as it rain. It was a really good experience.

Superb Experience - We had a fantastic experience. The boat was modern and impressive and we spotted Whales only 10 minutes into the cruise and observed numerous Humpback whales for the next 2 hours. All the staff were friendly and helpful but special mention to Jade the marina biologist who was really informative and passionate about all things whale. Worth every dollar.

Fantastic value - The best whale tour I have been on, within 20 minutes we were among the whales. We were close enough to hear them calling each other as well as hearing fluke and tail slaps, never been this close before. The crew were friendly yet professional and provided lots of in formation about the whales and how to spot them. Whilst watching tours are totally dependent on weather and the whales being in the area, I highly recommend Naturaliste Charters Whale Watching if you are looking for a short/ half day tour.

Magical experience with nature - Even though we are locals we decided to do something different for Father’s Day and head out to sea! First few minutes into the guide and we had a whale jumping around was so special then headed up to point picket and 2 came right up behind the boat! Was a beautiful experience and the guys on board absolute legends! Thanks for a great afternoon out at sea definitely will do it again Got some great photos
