Getting started

Arrive at Jervis Bay Wild Cruise Terminal, Huskisson, at least 15 minutes before departure. Present your e-voucher at check-in, then board our purpose-built vessel for a brief safety briefing before you set sail.

What to expect

Jervis Bay lies just over a 2½-hour drive south of Sydney CBD in a protected marine sanctuary. Between May and November, Humpback and Southern Right whales migrate through these calm, turquoise waters—often accompanied by curious calves. On your 2-hour voyage, you’ll:

  • Witness spectacular displays: breaching, tail-slaps, and close approaches.

  • Spot resident bottlenose dolphins riding our bow wake.

  • Photograph panoramic coastlines: white-sand beaches, sea cliffs, and secret coves.

Vessel highlights

  • Underwater viewing windows: Peer through reinforced portholes as whales and dolphins glide beneath the hull.

  • Live submersible camera: Watch a real-time feed of marine life on deck-mounted screens.

  • 360° observation decks: Multiple open-air platforms give you unobstructed views and perfect photo angles.
