Whales In Paradise

The only Whale Watching Tour departing from Surfers Paradise. Guaranteed Whale Sightings with Whales in Paradise, the original and most experienced Gold Coast Whale Watching company.

Set sail from Surfers Paradise for a dynamic up-close encounter that will stay with you for a lifetime. Witness one of the animal kingdom’s most breathtaking spectacles—40,000 migrating humpback whales passing close to Gold Coast shores twice yearly along an ancient route known as the Humpback Highway.

Marvel at their breathtaking aerial displays. See mothers tenderly care for their calves. Feel dwarfed by their size as they curiously approach the vessel. Keep your camera at the ready because whales aren’t the only stars of the show - our tours routinely encounter charismatic dolphins, enormous sea turtles and resident and migratory seabirds. A locally owned and family-operated business, Whales in Paradise is the ultimate boutique marine wildlife experience.
