Photos of whale watching.
Gold Coast whale watching tour operators share a common bond. The majestic humpback whales! Each tour operator has their own unique attributes, whether it be where they leave from, the times of cruises or their on board facilties.

There are several established whale watching cruise operators on and around the Gold Coast.

Each one seems to offer something different or unique from the others, whether it be more technology, a hydrophone, smaller boat, larger boat, departure points or departure times.

One thing is totally undisputed. They share a common bond and seem to work together to ensure that you the paying customer gets to have a great whale watching experience. The whales have it, for sure! Just get out there and enjoy them on one of these operators.

Departure Time for Gold Coast Whale Tours

The earliest tour departure time is 8.30am with the latest being at 2pm. Be sure that you get the time you need to be there for boarding, not the times the boats depart, you will need to be there at least 30 minutes prior to the departure times and bookings are essential.

Please note: each year the boat times do change, I try to update them at the beginning of each season. These are updated for 2010 with the information to hand in early May. Please check when booking, that information should be correct!
