When the whales are migrating and seas are calm, we offer an extended one hour boat tour. This gives us plenty of time to get out whale watching and enjoy the majesty of the passing whale fleet. A Marine Biologist is on board to answer questions and help identify the species. We are the only dedicated whale watching boat operating at Terrigal and the Central Coast.
*Available for group bookings. Please telephone 0449999868 to arrange.
