Fantastic experience - Peppy and Alby took such great care of us. This was a last minute find - we were supposed to be seeing whales out of Mooloolaba but they had canceled due to rough seas. But Peppy and Alby were willing to take us out. We got to see a number of humpbacks, including a mom and her calf. And although we had only booked a two hour tour, we were out there for over three by the time we got back - that's how dedicated they were to make sure we got our money's worth. Highly, highly recommended.

We got lucky on the day... - We got lucky on the day and saw many whales breaching. Plenty of dolphins too. Our hosts were very knowledgable and pleasant. Small boat of about 12 guests. It was the highlight of our Noosa trip - a really special experience.

Great whale watching in Noosa Heads area - Great smallish boat whale watching with knowledgable hosts, Albie and Peppie, who communicated their love and enthusiasm and respect for the whales very well. Sightings can never be guaranteed but we saw 6 adults and calves and were able to hear them communicating underwater. Definitely recommended. I will go again next time I'm in Noosa at the right time of year.

A Soulful Experience - I can’t recommend this whale watching experience enough! The tour was beyond our expectations. Not only did we come up close with the beautiful giants of the ocean, we also had the most soulful guides who imparted both wisdom and knowledge, leaving us all with a day we will never forget.

Magical encounter - Seeing dolphin pods escorting pairs of humpback whales, and hearing the whale songs from an underwater microphone. It was magical.

A whale of an experience!! - We had 3 whales with us from Noosa Heads Beach after we motored out of the river, for the whole trip. These whales met up with dolphins and other whales and even swam under us. Mugging or hugging? Very knowledgeable guides. Thank you Pepe and Albi. A great experience.

Misleading advertising - Firstly it was really difficult finding the building premises as it was a different company name and street number to what we'd been told. Although we saw a whale in the far distance very early on, the remainder of the trip didn't get us any closer, the pictures on the ad are very misleading. When I asked what the best time of year was to get close to them, I was told mid September- this information needs to be on the website ad so people aren't mislead.
