Second to none. - This whale watching experience was my first, and certainly won't be my last with this slick tour operator. They are not only friendly, but also professional and knowledgeable. I booked this tour, along with their snubfin tour, at the Broome market. I was very lucky to board what is usually their private charter boat as their 'normal boat' was all booked out, and what an intimate and astounding experience it was! We spent such a long time in the company of 3 whale bulls, watching them frolic and interact with our boat at such close proximity. The on board food was delicious and plentiful, and they graciously catered to my coeliac diet. And sailing back to land on the calm waters beneath a Cable Beach sunset was so relaxing and not to be missed. This was not on my list of things to do during my visit, but I'm so glad that I did it. It was a highlight of my trip in WA.

A wonderful experience! - Wow what an amazing afternoon, from the moment we were picked up we knew it was going to be a great time on the water. We had a wonderful welcome from Erica who picked us up at our AirBnB and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Great nibbles and drinks! The highlight was the Whales - we were so lucky to see so many mothers and their calves. There was a lot of breeching and tail slapping - it was a very emotional experience for us. Thank you Broome Whale Watching we will be coming back!

Best experience of a lifetime - This was a magical experience. Our captain was amazing. Friendly, informative and did everything to make sure we all had a great time. We saw so many whales, seaturtle and sea snakes. The staff were all fantastic, kept asking if we wanted drinks, kept serving delicious canapes. They were friendly, spoke to us and had a chat. Best staff on a boat I've been on. Don't miss out on doing the tour.

Excellent whale watching cruise - Excellent tour out of Broome. We saw whales within half an hour of boarding the boat. Even the amphibious tender was fun to be on. Captain Cam was an excellent spotter and didn't hesitate to get us to the action. Jopi was very attentive and her and the rest of the team kept us well watered and fed with delicious food. I'm GF and sister in law vego and they catered well for us. I would 100 % recommend this tour to everyone.

Pure MAJIK!!! - Absolutely sensational afternoon out on the water with Cam & team. I had the best time, whales in abundance, friendly efficient staff, yummy nibbles & they had to cater for a fussy GF Vego. I truly could not have asked for a more enjoyable experience. Broome Whale Watching are the premier service to travel onboard. Locals doing what they do best for well over 15 years. Congrats Val, Cam & crew, highly recommend what a magical experience, thank you, thank you, thank you. Looking forward to next season coming back with my adult children & grand babies, they will LoVe it!!! As did I....

Majestic - We did not expect to approach the whales so ready, they were only 20 meters from the boat. Gorgia was fabulous throughout the cruise and during our transfer from our Pension to the boat.

Fantastic experience, great team – a must do experience when in Broome! - Fantastic experience, great team and beautiful atmosphere and scenery. Had a beautiful day out on the water, seeing heaps of wildlife. The team provided a variety of drinks, snacks. Everything went super smooth. We swam in the net behind the boat, loads of fun and it all felt super save, as they assisted us in any way needed. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to get a close look at the beautiful whales. Plus for respecting the animals at the same time, as e.g. we always kept a secure distance to the female and her newborn.
