Soak up the natural landscape as you get up close and personal with humpback whales on their annual migration from June to November. Humpback whale numbers have been increasing at a rate of over 10% year on year, with more than 35,000 individual whales passing the Newcastle coast each year. Adult Humpback Whales can grow between 1418 metres long and can weigh up to 50 tonnes, while their calves are born at 2 tonnes. Seeing these friendly giants of the sea up close is an awe-inspiring sight that is impossible to describe. Board your unforgettable 2-hour cruise from Harbour Square Boat Dock on a comfortable eco-tourism vessel providing unobstructed 360-degree views so you don't miss any of the action. Humpback whales are some of the most inquisitive and interactive species out of all marine mammals, and will often put on a show for the crowd with breaches, tail lobs and pectoral slaps. Your cruise is much more than just a whale watching experience, in addition to showcasing the whales, each tour also focuses on the highlights of the Newcastle coastline with the added chance of encountering dolphins and New Zealand fur seals.
