DESCRIPTION: Join us for a full day adventure including a morning of whale watching, a trip to McLarens Landing, a buffet Aussie BBQ lunch, as well as a chance to get up close to some of the nature on South Stradboke Island.
Your day begins when you board our luxurious 32 meter high speed air conditioned, wave piercing catamaran. This vessel allows for fantastic viewing opportunities with 5 viewing platforms and is the first and largest most stable, whale watching vessel on the Gold Coast.
Whilst onboard enjoy complimentary fresh muffins for morning tea each morning on your way out to see the whales. Large video displays playing whale documentaries and informative commentary from our experienced eco team, will be shown throughout your journey for your viewing pleasure.
Be enchanted by local dolphins that ride the bow wave of our vessel, as we leave the Gold Coast seaway most mornings. Sea turtles, migrating sea birds and other whale species are often spotted on our morning trip.
The shape of our hull and the way it shines down into the water, creates a very appealing aqua colour directly below, this entices the curious humpback whales as they can often be clearly seen sitting below us, and popping up along side the vessel, to have a look at the passengers onboard.
Our highly experienced Captain and crew will ensure your morning on the ocean will be a truly memorable experience.
Be sure not to miss this exciting opportunity to experience these majestic mammals in their natural habitat on their annual migration past our coastline.
In the afternoon, we visit McLarens Landing, South Stradbroke Island, where you are free to enjoy wallaby & kookaburra feeding as well as play a free game of pool, darts or volleyball. Enjoy a delicious Aussie BBQ lunch buffet on the Island.
Take advantage of the FREE kayaks and paddle boats which are available for you to use throughout your day, for the chance to discover the true beauty of this Island.
In the early afternoon we depart this tranquil setting for our return cruise home. We soon arrive back at Mariners Cove Marina, after a day of adventure.
