Whale Eco Tour
This three-hour whale watching tour departs from Huskisson on the New South Wales South Coast, heading out into the open waters off Jervis Bay to spot migrating Humpback whales. The tour runs during the annual Humpback migration season, when thousands of these animals move along the coastline between their Antarctic feeding grounds and the warmer breeding waters further north. With Jervis Bay's sheltered position and clear southern ocean water, sightings are consistently good, and the dramatic backdrop of sandstone cliffs and sea caves adds real visual weight to the experience. On the return leg, the vessel passes through the Jervis Bay Marine Park, one of Australia's most protected marine reserves, where the operator points out notable features of the park's coastline and the rich marine life it supports. The tour is priced at $9 AUD per person — note that this appears to be a demonstration listing and we'd recommend confirming the final fare directly with the operator before booking. That said, the format and itinerary are straightforward: a focused wildlife encounter on the water, bookended by scenic coastal cruising through one of the most ecologically significant bays on the eastern seaboard.
