Great morning of whale watching, and we had a ball. The crew were fantastic, and full of interesting (and humorous) information on whale behaviour. Highly recommend this tour.

FAQs

Are there any age restrictions for whale watching tours?

Our Whale Watching tours departing from Augusta & Dunsborough are family friendly and open to all ages. There is however a minimum age of 10 on board our Bremer Bay Killer Whale Tours.

How close can we get to the whales?

Regulations and respect for wildlife dictate that vessels should maintain a specific distance from whales to avoid disturbing them. The exact distance can vary by location and regulatory bodies. Rest assured that your Naturaliste Charters crew are always up to date with the latest regulations and recommendations to make sure we leave as little environmental footprint as possible.

What happens if we don't see any whales?

You can confidently book a whale watching tour in Western Australia with us, thanks to our Whale Watching Guarantee. While we have a strong 99% whale sighting success rate, in the unlikely event that we don’t spot any whales, we invite you to come on another tour with us for free. To learn more, please read our No Whale Sighting Policy.

What should I bring on a whale watching tour?

Dress in layers as it can be colder at sea than on land. We recommend you bring sun protection (sunglasses, hat, sunscreen), a camera, binoculars for better viewing, and a reusable water bottle and keep cup.

What happens if I don’t see any whales?

Can I go whale watching if I get seasick?

Yes, if you take precautions you can still enjoy whale watching if you suffer from seasickness. If you’re prone to seasickness, it may be helpful to take anti-seasickness medication before your trip, following the instructions on the packaging. Additionally, staying outside in the fresh air, keeping your eyes on the horizon and towards land, and avoiding heavy meals before the tour can also help.

How long does a whale watching tour last?

The length of our whale watching tours varies. Most tours last approximately 2-3 hours, with the exception of our Bremer Canyon Killer Whale Expedition which lasts for 8 hours.
