Whale Watching and Wildlife Cruise

Experience a 3–4-hour Scenic Whale Watching and Wildlife Tour on board the custom-built vessels, MV Endorphin or MV Adrenalin for small groups and close-ups to these gentle giants.

During the cooler months (July-September), Townsville North Queensland marks a pit stop on the annual migration route of the Humpback Highway.

Around 7000 humpback whales choose to rest and play with their new calves in the crystal blue waters off the coast of Queensland. The Scenic Whale Watching and Wildlife Tour starts towards the Cape Cleveland Light which is an active heritage-listed lighthouse located on the northern tip of Cape Cleveland.

The lighthouse marks the northern point of the Cape, and the entrance to Cleveland Bay and was built in February 1878. All while guests watch enough whales to leave whale-loving hearts a flutter!

With a water level viewing deck, guests can truly feel like they're up close and personal with these ultimate ocean creatures – all on the whale's terms of course!

Tail slapping, pectoral fin waves and sometimes – full breaching is all just an added bonus during whale season.

Guests can board the vessel from either Townsville or Magnetic Island!
