“Loved Deans (captain) knowledge boat was great. Really good value for money. Would definitely do again . One small thing that could be improved is allowing everyone to see rather than keeping the boat in the same position whilst briefing g the whales. , could have manoeuvred the boat around more.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 444 reviews · 150 minutes - 1 day · from $63

Review Sea World Whale Watch on the Gold Coast, with practical advice on whales, dolphins, boat comfort, seasickness, price, timing, and value.

“We had an amazing experience with two different sets of mother and calves. the first pair were incredibly energetic and breeching continuously. The second pair were a bit more shy and went silent after a few breeches. Overall, I think this experience depends a lot on your luck and the whale's mood. But if both of them are riding your way, then you'll have an outworldly experience with these majestic beauties.”
