Frequently Asked Questions
Each year from June through until early November, the mighty southern humpback whales grace us with their beauty as they migrate through the crystal clear waters of South East Queensland. Each and every tour is a unique experience and sightings vary from day to day. Whilst the humpback whales are the stars of the show, a typical tour may encounter pods of dolphins leaping and playing alongside our magnificent vessel as well as an array of other marine life.
Dress warmly and wear flat shoes. If you wish to spend time on the outside decks of our vessel, you may like to wear a light waterproof wind jacket.
Yes – a licensed bar and souvenir counter are available onboard, selling a range of goods such as film, confectionery, beverages and merchandise.
Yes – we offer a complimentary cruise for you on the next available departure if you don’t sight any whales on your day of travel.
The tours are always subject to sea conditions. Our team constantly monitors weather and respond professionally to any changes. Guest comfort and safety is always our priority. Should a cruise be cancelled due to tide and/or weather conditions, a seat on the next available cruise will be offered or a full refund will be given.
MV Eye-Spy has been purpose-built to specifications to ensure maximum comfort for whale watching. However, should you if you are susceptible to motion or seasickness, motion-sickness tablets are available onboard.
The best parking option is the ‘Captain Cook’ car park, located 100-200 meters north of the Redcliffe Jetty at the corner of Redcliffe Parade and Klinger Road, which offers non-time-limited parking for your convenience.
However, if you choose an alternative parking spot, be mindful of the 2-hour or 4-hour limits in the area. Since the Whale Watching excursion lasts 5 hours, plan accordingly to avoid any issues.
We suggest adding 10 minutes to your travel time to accommodate parking.
Brisbane Whale Watching has taken proactive measures to cater to guests using wheelchairs, providing accessible restroom facilities and implementing dedicated procedures to ensure a delightful experience for all attendees while observing the majestic marine giants.
