Whale Watching Sydney - Sydney, NSW

I saw whales for 4 to 5 times during this 2 hour tour. It would be nice if the duration is longer. It's super lucky to witness ceremony for the King Charles III on the sea, facing the Opera House and the harbour bridge!! Also, nice staff and immediate response from email. Thankyou for bringing precious memories to my Australia trip?

We have been wanting to go whale watching for a while and this cruise was totally worth it! As a family of four we had the best day. We saw more whales than we thought we would and Willow and Nick were both knowledgeable and accommodating. The boat was great. We loved hearing all the information about the whales and of Sydney Harbour as well. We would definitely recommend this company! Thanks guys for an amazing day! I’m sure we will see you again!

had an amazing time with whale watching sydney on 18/07! took us out safely and gave us lots of time to watch the whales that were swimming together as a pod. they also made the effort to ensure the boat was in prime viewing spots so i'm really appreciative of that. really do recommend them!!!

Had a fantastic trip with Fantasea on their 2 hour express whale watching trip. The crew were amazing and we were so lucky to see so many whales. This is the second time I’ve been out with Fantasea and I loved every second! Thank you!!

My Whale Watching experience with Fantasea in Sydney was nothing short of magical. From the moment we set sail, the crew's professionalism and passion for marine life were evident. The tour began with a comfortable and swift ride out to the open ocean, thanks to their purpose-built catamaran. The vessel itself, equipped with spacious decks and cozy seating, allowed for an immersive yet relaxed experience.

What made the tour truly unforgettable was the close encounters with the majestic whales. The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly when we encountered a magnificent mother whale and her playful calf. Watching them swim gracefully through the water was a sight to behold, but nothing prepared us for the sheer joy of witnessing them leap out of the water. The mother and calf put on an incredible display, breaching and splashing, and our collective gasps of excitement echoed across the boat. It was a moment that filled our hearts with awe and appreciation for the beauty of nature.

As the sun began to set, painting the sky with hues of orange, pink, and gold, the experience became even more magical. The soft glow of the sunset reflected off the water, creating a breathtaking backdrop for our whale watching adventure. The combination of the stunning views and the incredible wildlife made this journey truly unforgettable. The bonus? If you don’t spot whales, Fantasea offers a free return cruise, making it a no-risk adventure for nature lovers.

I highly recommend Fantasea Whale Watching for both locals and tourists—it’s a must-do in Sydney for an awe-inspiring connection with the natural world.

This was a fantastic cruise! We had a bumpy ride (the crew warned us), but they came thru providing amazing views of many whales. I have great videos from the tour. Highly recommend!

This is my second trip with Fantasea whale watching. We took a smaller boat for this trip compared to the first trip. With the smaller boat, you are more likely to get wet if the sea is rough but the boat is able to travel faster and it will be easier to get to different locations to spot the whales. The captain is very knowledgeable and took great care of us. Would definitely recommend doing the tour with them

What a fantastic experience! The boat was respectful of The space they needed to keep between us and the whales, but we still saw so much. The staff were very informative and we were so blessed to be able to see a little calf who had just been born.
