Whale Watching In Australia Vacation Packages


The massive 22,369 miles of Australian coastline is a gateway for some of the world’s best whale watching adventures, allowing visitors bountiful opportunities to observe annual migrations. Both the east and west coasts of Australia feature excellent places to catch a glimpse of the many species of whales that inhabit the waters including humpback whales, dwarf minke, baleen, southern right, and even orcas migrate along the coasts. The whale shows take place twice a year when the magnificent mammals migrate to and from Antarctica, making their journey to warmer waters to feed, breed, and birth. The world’s largest population of Humpback Whales, up to 30,000 individuals migrate off the coast of Western Australia, and on the East Coast, over 20,000 Humpback whales migrate to the Coral Sea. Locations such as Hervey Bay, Fraser Island, Albany, Margaret River, Perth, Melbourne, and even the Sydney region have excellent opportunities for whale watching with tours, and sightseeing.
