An amazing small group experience to see the migrating whales up close as they pass by on their annual journey. The whales pass close to the Terrigal Haven and it is a short trip to link up with their migration path. Learn about these amazing animals in safety with a professional and experienced crew. A Marine Biologist is on board to answer questions and help identify the species. On most trips we will be gathering data for whale research programs. Our ecotour RIB is very stable and provides magnificent all round views.
