Join us for a once in a lifetime experience of Australia’s ONLY private skippered overnight humpback whale watching experience! This charter offers an exclusive opportunity for guests to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Fraser Coast and the wonders of the humpback whale migration.
Embark on a 2-day, 1-night journey aboard your very own private yacht, where you will experience the magic of whale watching up close and personal. Guided by an experienced skipper, guests will explore the UNESCO Heritage-listed Great Sandy Strait, a pristine natural haven brimming with marine life and stunning landscapes. This once-in-a-lifetime adventure combines the thrill of up close whale encounters with the serenity of sailing through one of Australia's hidden boating gems.
Find The Boat Club Marina entry at the end of the gated parking area (next to Fuel Wharf).
We’ll make our way north along the west coast of K’gari towards one of the whales’ favourite playgrounds, Platypus Bay. We’ll pass well-known landmarks such as Big Woody Island, Pelican Banks and Moon Point keeping an eye out for any breaching, lobtailing or tail slapping whales on our way, before anchoring just in front of the beautiful Arch Cliffs for the afternoon. These grand coloured sand dunes make for the perfect picturesque backdrop to enjoy a sundowner (or two). Make sure you have your camera handy to capture the changing colour hues as the sun sets over the water.
After a well-rested sleep, you’ll be treated to a yummy breakfast the next morning as we start cruising for the day in search of some playful humpback whales and some incredible up-close encounters. After spending a few hours with these majestic mammals, we’ll make our way south along the island and (time permitting), stop at Pelican Banks for Afternoon Tea before returning back to the Urangan Marina.
