VerifiedFantastic day out on the water! We had a wonderful day whale watching, turtle spotting and we we saw some dolphins too. The crew were friendly, helpful and informative. The boat was spacious enough to move around freely and the food offered was freshly prepared on board and tasty. I have recommended this tour to friends and family and I can't wait to go again. What a wonderful way to spend a day. Loved it!Dazndiddy27/08/2023VerifiedLove this Tour What a great day out, terrific crew, very knowledgeable and helpful, the food was awesome, fresh baked muffins on a rolling boat, pretty amazing. And then there were the whales, how amazing to see these gorgeous creatures in their natural habitat, we got to see mum and bub frolicking and bub learning to be a whale, having a great time., and that was just one sighting. Highly recommend this tour.Tanya H26/08/2023VerifiedWonderful whale watching experience It was a perfect day! There was 17 whales, dolphins and turtles! The crew was fantastic and shared tons of knowledge about the whales! The potato salad was 5 stars, the pumpkin salad was 5+ stars and they had the best raspberry muffins I’ve ever tasted. I will definitely be back on board soon.Katalin S24/08/2023VerifiedWhales galore We had an awesome day with the crew on Kalinda. Saw about 19 whales 🐋. We had good weather and certainly can't complain about the food. It was so yummy. Well done chef. I would highly recommend this company for any charter. Maddi the Marine Biologist was very helpful with great knowledge. Thank you all you made it an awesome day to remember.Jen P23/08/2023VerifiedWhat a Great Day Had the best day out with Townsville Whale Watching! Saw several mums with their calves and some with their escorts! Also saw a pod of whales tail slapping and fin slapping and heard them expelling air from their blowholes! Just amazing! Also saw a whale breach in the distance! Our crew were friendly and very informative and had Morning and afternoon tea and a scrumptious lunch! Can’t wait to go again next year!Sharon H13/08/2023VerifiedTour Awesome day out on the water searching for whales. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Saw a few whales, one up close to the boat. Highly recommendedJodi C27/07/2023VerifiedNice experience Friendly crew, saw the whales out and about but obviously not so close…would have liked to have spent more time out with the whales vs lunching/anchored. Bring a good zoom for the camera and your sunscreen!Stephanie C04/09/2022VerifiedBEST day I had the most amazing day on the charter with the guys from Townsville Whale Watching! The water was quite choppy, but that didn’t stop the incredible experience of seeing whales, dolphins and countless sea turtles! The food and service was impeccable, and the love and knowledge the captain has for the ocean and it’s creatures was inspiring! Definitely will be booking again with this company - the staff were friendly, and definitely provided excellent service! 😊 would give 10 stars if I could!Stacie M29/08/2022VerifiedSuch a great day watching whales!
