Eden Whale Watching Cruise

Highlights

Duration: 2 Hours (approx.)

Location: Eden, NSW

Discover the humpback highway

See whales at Eden named as one of Australia’s top Whale Watching destinations by Australian Geographic over the last 10 years!

Learn how Eden which was once home to several whaling stations is now one of Australia's premier whale watching locations.

Whale watching cruises commence late May and operate through until mid November. The whales are migrating north from from Antarctica to the Great Barrier Reef from May to July. Then they come south again August to November.

During this time of the year majestic Humpback whales frequent the waters just off the coast at Eden, at times coming into Twofold Bay. Other species of whales that also visit this area include Southern Right, Minke, occasionally Blue, Bryde’s and Orca. In August and September most years whales can be observed lateral lunge feeding – one of the few places in the world this can be seen!

Other sea life frequently seen are Common & Bottlenose Dolphins, Australian Fur Seals, penguins, flying fish and at times sunfish and turtles.

Bird life includes many species of sea birds – albatross, shearwaters, sea eagles and gannets to name a few.

Please arrive 20 minutes prior to departure.

What to bring:

  • Warm clothes – being on the water can be cold when standing viewing the whales.
  • Camera – to capture all those golden whale moments (and spare batteries or a power source).
  • Sunglasses – there is a lot of glare off the water so a pair of sunnies is always recommended.
  • Seasickness precautions are recommended for whale watching and coastal wilderness cruises which operate on open waters, it’s always better to be prepared.
  • A sense of adventure – you never know what we may encounter!
