I can not stop telling everyone about my experience on Sapphire Coastal Adventures. The crew were so knowledgeable and helpful throughout my four cruises in one weekend. Could not be happier and will be returning every year religiously. Whales are my passion and l feel l learnt so much from Simon the captain. Absolutely 10 out of 10 experience.

Absolutely amazing! Both my wife and myself booked the whale watching cruise and were thrilled with the entirety of the outing. We were looked after well by the Skipper and crew and had the ultimate experience of viewing pods of whales close to the vessel, not only whales but also dolphins, seals and sea birds, the price was well worth the overall experience and the skipper steered us with skill close without interfering with the safety of the whales, the onboard commentary was excellent, amenities and seating comfortable and very clean. We thank all involved and highly recommend this cruise without hesitation to all who wish to experience this most exciting viewing.

Had an awesome afternoon with plenty of whales found by Sapphire Coastal Adventures out of Eden. Can’t go wrong with these guys, so informative and experienced at finding whales for us to view. Happy to stay with the whales showing off and not rushing here and there. Today we saw whales, dolphins, seals and albatrosses. Captain and crew interacted with passengers throughout in a friendly,energetic way and making sure everyone was getting the best experience possible. Well done to everyone aboard today - Monday 26 August 2024. Can’t wait for a return trip. Many heartfelt thanks

The ultimate whale watching adventure!

I’ve been on many boats, across Australia, and this is hands down the best one. I’ve sailed with these guys about seven times, and the experience each time has been absolutely phenomenal. The wealth of knowledge of the crew, and the quality of the craft set these guys apart. Myself and my family will return each year.

Such an awesome trip. We did the 2.5 hr Eden cruise. You can never know what you’ll see but we got the goods! Gorgeous whales and babies swimming along us, breaching babies and tail slapping, followed by dolphins escorting the front of the boat in. Shez a great on deck support and ensuring everyone got to see the goods. Not over crowded despite being a full boat. Would go again daily ?

I have been out on trips from Bermagui, Eden and Merimbula with Simon, Jess and their crew from Sapphire Coastal Adventures over many years now. Each trip has been unique, in terms of coastline and the interactions with the whales (I have been lucky enough to capture Humpbacks, Minke and Southern Right Whales while onboard), plus other sea-life including dolphins, seals and birds. Both Jess and Simon have a wealth of knowledge that they share while onboard. Highly recommend.

What a fantastic morning we had! We were surrounded by whales and two in particular came to play for well over an hour. Thanks to Simon for his informative commentary, and a big shout out to Chez (deck hand) for making sure every passenger was comfortable and enjoying themselves. 10/10
