Encounter the majestic Humpback Whales in the pristine waters of Noosa on a unique and intimate whale watching cruise with one of the most experienced whale watch skippers in Australia.

Witness their playful curiosity and acrobatics as they breach, slap and splash just off the iconic Noosa National Park. 'Noosa Ocean Adventures' whale watching tours operate daily tours between June and October for the adventurous and young at heart on our purpose-built boat β€œThriller”, offering 360-degree views, padded seating where everyone has a front row and powerful engines for comfort, speed, and safety. Our focus is to provide you an intimate experience with the whales on a small, personalised tour, with a maximum of 12 passengers. As we explore the stunning coastal scenery of Noosa, we will encounter several whales and other marine creatures such as dolphins, turtles, and migratory seabirds.
