Great experience - What a great experience. As soon as we got out of the headwaters we quickly found a mother and her calf and another whale. We are able to slowly follow them for over an hour before we had to head back. The whole crew were very informative and quick to assist with any request.

Great way to see the Gold Coast - We had a great day out, we went at the end of the season and still saw whales. The ocean views & skyline were beautiful and the team were friendly and helpful.

Simply amazing - Such a friendly captain and crew who really endeavour to get you close to the whales without intruding on their safety. Had such an amazing tour and made memories that will last forever. Thank you guys.

Holiday Highlight - Had a really neat experience whale watching with Spirit of Gold Coast. The team was able to get us on to some whales almost immediately after leaving the seaway. A few of our group got a bit of sea sickness while out there, but the staff on board were amazingly helpful and friendly. Lost count of how many hump back whales we saw. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone.

Great tour, saw some whales - Very well organised. Left promptly. Saw lots of whales. Weird thing was they took photos of everyone individually and printed them out but then you had to buy them so I asked what happens if I don't buy it and they said they just bin them.
