So before you get on the boat they tell you a lot of people get sea sick and they recommend you purchase sea sickness tablets on board. The first thing I did was purchase a tablet. The first hour of the trip or so I felt brilliant. We arrived at the whales and kaboom I got sick everywhere. The staff were so lovely and helpful. I did get to see some whales but sadly due to feeling so sick I was mostly fixated on my vomit bag. They got me to sit at the back of the boat and I got to see lots of dolphins and some of the whale action. The boat and the toilets were immaculately clean, staff so friendly and kind, and the opportunity to see all of the whales and dolphins was awesome. I highly recommend you prepare ahead of time with sea sickness tablets ud83eudd23 and if you want to go whale watching this company is definitely worth it u2764ufe0fud83dude01

Great experience aboard eye spy! Whales seemed to love it as much as everyone else! Had a pod of dolphins join in the fun too - would recommend and will be going again!

Absolutely marvellous! I have been not one time and I definitely will come back! Amazing view, whales are so close. Captain Kerry loves whales and she shares her passion and knowledge. All crew members are friendly and lovely people. Thank you so much for what you are doing! And I came back so I will add more photos. And I will be back again. 😉

A pleasant stroll along the jetty when in Redcliffe. Nice views from the end of the jetty looking back at Redcliffe and a great place to grab food from the local market and go for a walk. Dogs are allowed on the jetty and there's generally a few people fishing from there too. Get's quite busy during peak times!

Disappointed, booked a full day tour.nnBrisbane Whale Watching Cruise - Full Day - Adult BWW011/nnLeft port at around 950am back atn205pm, since when does approx. 4 hours constitute a Full Day???nIf I’m working for a full day I am there approx. 8 hours……sure my boss would disagree with 4 hours being a full days work.n1 hour to open waters, 2 hours chasing whales, 1 hour back to home base. 4 hours.nWe saw a few whales, a couple of distant breaches, a tail flap or two, although just glimpses.nSecond time we have tried this and second time same result as first.nThe staff were very helpful and friendly, some ok commentary, lunch was good also.nWould love to get that special trip where whales actually come up to the boat but alas, that will always be “should have been here yesterday” territory, maybe try Hervey Bay next time.nRegards.nWayne.

Went on Friday 29 postponed from Wednesday 27 and I had a wonderful day.lots of sightings tail slaps. Pectoral fins. Staff were knowledgeable. Food was tasty. Unfortunately being short and having to hold on tightly once we were past Cape Moreton most of my photos were of other passengers legs and backs. But have some great memories. Thanks very much to the crew.

Nice place to visit. Many people fishing here. Whale watching cruise is here, need to buy tickets in advanced and depends on weather condition.

An absolutely amazing day. We saw so many whales and Captain Kerry Lopez gave expert commentary. The booking staff are very helpful. A fantastic day out. Thank you to Kerry and the Brisbane Whale Watching crew.

Lovely place to visit day or night, good for sunrise and sunset, can walk either direction on the Esplanade for beautiful walks and views. Tables and chairs in the middle for picnics, parking all around but usually busy.

A great day out, we had such a good time and saw quite a few whales playing close by to the boat. Would definitely recommend if you want a close encounter without having to get wet 😆nAdded bonus, lunch is included in the ticket price and as a fussy eater I was pleasantly surprised.nA variety of drinks, snacks etc available for purchase on board as well as sea sickness tablets in case you forgot to bring some.nMy only complaint is the size of the coffee...so teeny tiny, they need to at least give you the option of a bigger size....we need our caffeine 😂

I'm here often. It's a great spot be it for date night with the restaurants and beer gardens asking the esplanade, a family day out or a place to find your peace.
