Sydney Harbour: 2-Hour Whale Watching Express Cruise

About this experience

The Sydney Harbour 2-Hour Whale Watching Express Cruise is a dedicated whale watching departure operating out of Campbells Cove Pontoon at Circular Quay, in The Rocks area of Sydney. The vessel reaches open ocean within 15 minutes of leaving the wharf, leaving close to 1.5 hours of active whale watching time on the water. The two-level boat is fitted with an air-conditioned internal saloon, LCD television screens, a seated sundeck, a covered rear deck, and large windows throughout the saloon, giving passengers sheltered and open-air viewing options throughout the cruise. Humpback and southern right whales migrate along the New South Wales coastline between May and November, making Sydney Harbour one of the more accessible departure points on the east coast route. Passengers can move freely between the sundeck, covered rear deck, and indoor saloon during the two hours on the water. Wheelchair access is available on board, and toilet facilities are provided. Snacks and drinks are not included but can be purchased from the onboard bar. Tickets cover the full two-hour cruise on the two-level vessel, with indoor and outdoor seating throughout.
