Whale Adventure Tour

Secure Your Spot Now for a Whale Watching Adventure from Sydney's CBD! Witness the breathtaking spectacle of 40,000 majestic humpback whales passing over Australia's largest city. Sail with Ocean Adventurer Captain Dean and the friendly, knowledgable Barefoot Crew on our specially designed 16-meter whale viewing catamaran. Select among cruises in the morning, midday, or even at sunset.

The largest city in Australia is also one of the greatest locations to witness the majority of the country's migratory humpback whale population. You may literally leave the CBD and head towards an amazing whale encounter in a matter of minutes. This is where you can view seals, dolphins, sperm whales, humpback, minke, and southern right whales. 

With Captain Dean at the helm and spearheading the adventure, Barefoot Blue has undergone an incredible transition to become the most thrilling and enjoyable Whale Watching vessel in Sydney Harbour, thanks to his decades of ocean experience and his work producing underwater documentaries.

Our 16-meter custom-built whale-watching boat, BAREFOOT BLUE, is built for adventure and comfort. You'll have the very best seats in the house for seeing whales, dolphins, and more thanks to the three walk-around viewing decks, comfortable seating, and weather protection! Not too big that you get lost in a sea of people, but just big enough to be safe in any weather.

But the experience is more important than just the sights! Our team is just as excited to see these incredible animals as you are. Their contagious energy and extensive expertise make every journey memorable and fun for all.
