Combine the sights of Sydney Harbour with an open water cruise through the entrance of Sydney Harbour to find the gentle giants of the sea. The cruises are safe, comfortable, spacious and best of all, whale numbers increase every year.

From June these majestic marine mammals migrate north for breeding before returning south with their calves from September. Southern Right Whales do not migrate, instead moving along the coast finding protected shelters for their young.

Occasionally a mother and calf make Sydney Harbour their home for a short while and thousands of locals come out to wish them well.

Optional Extras include Taronga Zoo and 2-Day Sydney Harbour Explorer passes
