5.5Hr Classic Whale Watching Adventure Tour

The Classic Whale Watching Adventure tour is the best-value way to experience Brisbane's annual Humpback Whale migration without paying for reserved seating. Departing from Redcliffe aboard the purpose-built Eye Spy, this 5.5-hour cruise takes you into the sheltered waters of Moreton Bay, one of the world's premier whale watching destinations, where migrating Humpback Whales regularly breach, tail slap and surface close to the vessel. 
With this package, you enjoy flexible seating throughout the main deck (excluding reserved window tables), access to all outdoor viewing areas, expert commentary and the freedom to move around the vessel to follow the whales as they appear.

The Classic Whale Watching Experience

Whale watching is unpredictable, in the best possible way. One moment the ocean is calm, and the next a Humpback launches clear from the water. The classic package lets you enjoy that excitement with the freedom to explore the vessel's outer viewing areas rather than being in one reserved seat.
Along the way, Captain Kerry Lopez and her experienced crew provide fascinating live commentary, while a dedicated spotter plane guides ‘Eye Spy’ directly towards whale activity. Underwater cameras and hydrophones add another dimension to the experience, allowing you to both see and hear these magnificent marine mammals.

‘Eye Spy’ skipper Captain Kerry Lopez is recognised as the only woman to own     and skipper a whale-watching vessel in the South Pacific rim. Her hospitable crew is equipped with years of local knowledge, and a portion of every ticket sold goes toward ongoing whale research.

A gourmet picnic lunchbox of chicken, garden salad, potato salad and fruit is served during the cruise, with a vegetarian option available on request if you let the team know when booking. 

Who Is This Cruise Best Suited For

This tour suits first-time whale watchers, budget-conscious travellers and families, thanks to the dedicated family ticket price.
