Whales in Paradise
DON'T JUST WHALE WATCH!! BE THERE!!
Join Whales in Paradise as they take you on an unforgettable whale watching cruise past the homes of the rich and famous, with commentary, to the crystal blue waters of the "HUMPBACK WHALE HIGHWAY".
The crew is experienced and knowledgeable and is dedicated to providing you with the closest whale encounters possible. Let Whales in Paradise organise your ultimate whale watching cruise.
After a brief (and often entertaining) safety induction, commence your tour with a scenic canal cruise through the Nerang River. Gaze at the amazing architecture as our knowledgeable crew point out the spectacular homes of the rich and famous.
Your cruise continues past South Stradbroke Island to the nearby waters of the Australian Whale Sanctuary. Be prepared to encounter Humpback Whales, Bottlenose Dolphins, giant Loggerhead Turtles, Killer Whales and various Sea Birds.
The crew are experienced and dedicated to providing you with the closest whale encounters possible. The vessel Mahi Mahi is purpose built and specifically selected for whale watching with unobstructed 360 degree viewing on all decks - not just the bow.
