Our whalewatch and snorkel charters are staffed by knowledgeable certified marine naturalists for a fully customised experience. Our goal is to delight your clients with our uncompromising attention to top-quality service aboard our 12-metre, smooth-riding RIB with a top speed of 43 knots, featuring full size walk in toilet plus water level, forward facing, covered seating with panoramic views. All profits go to saving whales and the oceans!

 

The Great Sandy Marine Park is home to a number of varieties of dolphin, turtle and dugong year-round, as well as a broad array of bird species; both migrating waders and local populations including osprey, kites, sea-eagles, terns, shearwaters, gannets and gulls. Choose a stopover on the beach of K’gari Fraser Island, Big Woody Island with its historic lighthouse, or perhaps land on a deserted sand cay.

During the whale watching season (July to late October), learn about our 35 years of local humpback whale research including the latest whale findings from marine biologists, and help collect data as part of our ongoing research studies. In addition to naturalist groups, tailored packages can be booked for wedding parties or receptions, birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, corporate whale watch or snorkel cruises, sunset cruises or milestone celebrations.
