Manly Whale Watching

Whales are guaranteed on all our tours!

Manly Whale Watching has been involved in the Sydney Whale Watching industry for over 9 years, providing tours and great service for all of the Sydney, Manly and Northern Beaches. Whale Watching Season runs from mid May through to mid November.

The Manly Whale Watching office is located right next to Manly Wharf, which enables you to avoid the extra commuting time to get into the Sydney CBD, where all the rest of Sydney's Whale Watching operators are based. Our Manly Wharf location is only 5 minutes to the start of the Sydney whale watching area maximising our time with the Whales.

Accompany our experienced skippers past the 300ft vertical cliffs of the Sydney Heads into the Pacific Ocean in search of the magnificent Humpback and Southern Right whales.

Manly Whale Watching would like to welcome our newest vessel Manly Ocean Adventures, who offers the most personalised tour by a local operator, departing and returning directly to Manly, it is our highest recommend tour!

Manly Whale Watching is able to cater to all those Sydney based whale watchers with pick up locations also at Darling Harbour and Circular Quay.
