Swimming with Humpback Whales

The experience was wonderful. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any whales under the water on the day we went out, however, there was loads of activity on the surface with whales, dolphins and a turtle. The crew on the boat are awesome and keep you updated all day on where to sight the whales and when it's safe to get in the water. As with all wildlife encounters, everything is on their terms and you need to be ok with that.

Being in the water with these massive, gentle whales was absolutely humbling. Watching them glide past so effortlessly was unreal—it’s something I’ll never forget. Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

What you can expect

Experience the closest thing to magic during this 4 hour tour in the Sunshine Coast. Cruising off from Mooloolaba in a comfortable vessel, you and your experienced crew will be in search of the gentle giants of the underwater world, humpback whales. Once a whale is sighted, the boat will be put into neutral 100m or more away from the whale and if conditions are deemed safe by the trained crew, you'll be led into the water for your chance to swim alongside these amazing animals. Feel spellbound as you share the waters with these majestic creatures and be fascinated by their graceful movements.

Please note: This experience is 100% on the whales own terms. We will do everything in our power to align whale encounters, but cannot guarantee that you will get to swim with these magnificent sea mammals. If on the day the boat doesn't sight a whale at all, you will be eligible for 50% off your next trip. This is not available if we find whales but are unable to enter the water with them.
