Itinerary

Brisbane Whale Watching invites you to come on board the magnificent ‘Eye Spy’ for an encounter with the whales. Of all the great whales, the Humpback is the most surface active displaying behaviour that will not only inspire you but leave you in awe.

Brilliant experience

Published on Oct, 2024

Very well presented & lovely clean boat. Had an excellent time and got right up close to a mother & her cub. Brilliant experience. The captain was very knowledgable about the whales and their life out at sea.

DO IT DO IT DO IT

Published on Oct, 2024

This was one of the best boat trips we’ve ever been on! I’ve never seen whales so up close! Not only that but we saw dolphins and a shark too! The crew were all so friendly and helpful! Can clearly tell that they love their job and I tell you what I am so jealous of them having that as a job! 10/10 would come again

Go see the humpback whales!

Published on Oct, 2024

Great tour - everything from the pick-up-service in Brisbane city with a wonderful driver (Ray), boarding, info on board and - not kidding - many, many many humpback-whales svimming just around the boat with their new-borne calfs were just breath-taking. Also sightings of dolphins and sea-turtles. Highly recommended, worth every cent and every minute.

Absolutely Fantastic!

Published on Oct, 2024
