Marvelous - We had a marvelous experience. We saw three whales and a lot of dolphins. The guides were very nice and informative, they also kept enough distance to the animals. Would book it again any time!

Pleasant but little commentary about the whales. - Enjoyed trip. Well organised and comfortable. Saw whales but felt we could have been given more information about the humpbacks and their migration. Not very informative.

No wales, all albatross, a little coral - It was the end of season, try to book before November, As it’s coming out of season. A little chilly, good if you like to watch the sea. No fault on the captain, he tried, just not good enough. Hopefully better luck next time.

Need to be lucky to spot any Whales or dolphins - You will need to be extremely lucky and fortunate to be able to sight the dolphins or the whales that is these cruise is based on. The service itself is good and the boats used for the cruise are in good condition. The weather plays a big part in whether you are going to have a good time or not. Unfortunately, we went out on a very windy day and were very unlucky not to be able to spot anything. The cruise went for about 2 hours and we came back just with a boat ride to show for.

One monther, calf and dolphin - expected to see more activity - The crew were fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great information. The boat itself was excellent, and overall, the experience was well-organized. If you’ve never seen a whale before, this tour will absolutely delight you. That said, we were a little disappointed. The day before, we witnessed numerous whales breaching just outside the bay and expected this tour to offer a similar experience, but closer. Instead, we stayed within Jervis Bay, following one mother and calf for just over an hour before following a single dolphin and then heading back. Honestly, if the tour had ventured closer to the bay’s exit or just outside the bay, I believe we would have seen much more whale activity.

Boat great, whales remote - If you have never seen a whale before, you will be pleased with this tour. However, if you are not a "whale virgin", you will be disappointed about how much you see. The boat has to stay so far away from the whales that all views are very distant and hardly worth the effort. On the other hand, the boat is nice (comfortable and stable) and you get to see a good part of the Jervis Bay shoreline (in the distance again).
