Tours Direct from Byron Bay
Whale Watching Byron Bay is the only whale watching tour operator departing directly from Byron Bay. This allows us the quickest access to the Humpback whale migration on the Australian east coast.
Whale Watching Byron Bay has been operating since 2002 making us Byron Bay’s most experienced whale watching tour operator. Over the years we have developed a tour that will provide you with a safe, informative and rewarding experience.
Personalised Tours
We conduct small personalised interpretive tours with a maximum of only 12 whale watchers per vessel. Tours are conducted on purpose built RIB vessels designed for unobstructed viewing of the whales. Each vessel is annually inspected by the NSW Maritime Authority to ensure it complies with all current safety regulations.
The unique geography of Byron Bay’s Cape Byron allows us to pin point each whale’s location, therefore Whale Watching Byron Bay’s tours often encounter whales within minutes of departing Byron Bay.
Supporting Research
In an effort to contribute to Humpback whale conservation, Whale Watching Byron Bay contribute a portion of every fare to Southern Cross University’s Whale Research Centre. In addition we are an active participant in Southern Cross University’s Fluke Matcher whale identification program.
