What you can expect

Every seat on this boat is yours.

This is a fully private whale watching experience on Sydney Harbour. No shared groups, no strangers, just your party and a knowledgeable local skipper aboard a VIP Sports Cruiser.

Board at Campbells Cove in The Rocks and reach the whale watching area in just 15 minutes. From June to October, humpback whales migrate along the Sydney coastline, your skipper knows where they travel and how to get there fast.

Along the way, you pass some of Sydney's most iconic landmarks: the Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, Fort Denison, Shark Island, Clark Island, Watsons Bay, The Gap and Sydney National Park. Bottlenose dolphins and fur seals are regular sightings in these waters too.

The vessel is a purpose-built VIP Sports Cruiser with shade covering, a downstairs cabin, toilet facilities and generous space to move around the deck. BYO drinks if you like — the storage is there. Bottled water is provided. Your skipper handles the commentary, the navigation and the wildlife knowledge.

Private means flexible. Your group sets the pace. The skipper can extend time at a sighting, detour to the seals or coastline, or return early if needed. No waiting for other passengers. No compromise.

This is a seasonal, premium experience.
