Half Day Whale WatchingThese cruises depart at 7.30 a.m. from late September until late November. Their land and sea based whale spotting network ensures you get the best possible chance of seeing whales at close range. The main type of whales seen are Humpbacks which travel close to shore, at times coming right into Twofold Bay on their southern migration, but quite often other species are seen including the rare Blue Whales, Minke, Bryde's, Southern Right and Orca. You may witness the awesome sight of whales engaged in lateral lunge feeding - normally only seen in Antarctic waters. Other sea life frequently seen are Common and Bottlenose Dolphins, Australian Fur Seals, Penguins, Sunfish and occasionally turtles. Bird watchers are amazed at the variety of sea birds including Albatross, Shearwaters, White Breasted Sea Eagles and Gannets to name a few. Twofold Bay Sealife CruisesA two hour cruise around Eden's historic Twofold Bay. These cruises operate all year and give passengers an insight into this historic whaling port. There is a resident pod of dolphins seen on most trips, also seals and penguins. Discover the beauty of the bay which is surrounded by the Ben Boyd National Park, Mount Imlay, State Forests and many pristine beaches. | |
