Amazing Whale Watching - Absolutely fantastic experience. Saw heaps of whales - some up close. It was profoundly moving to see these amazing creatures in their natural habitat - seemed like some were actually performing for us. The trip was well organised, the crew were professional, very knowledgeable and friendly. The boat is fantastic with great facilities and room for everyone to view. Highly recommend it.

Lifelong Memories - Beautiful sunny calm day and not long before we saw whales. They were tail slapping, flapper slapping, breaching and playing with dolphins. Best part was the whales came right up to the boat to explore what we were doing. They circled the boat a couple of times. Staff were very friendly and informative about the whales. Boat was lovely and clean.

Wonders of the ocean - I went on the morning and afternoon whale watching tours yesterday. Both were wonderful. There was more to see in the morning on this particular day. Plenty of pectoral fin slapping, tail thumping and breaching on the morning tour. Less activity in the afternoon, but that’s the nature of a wildlife tour. Staff were friendly and informative. The tours departed from Busselton marina (not Dunsborough), due to conditions. Worked well for me. There’s a lovely cafe at the marina. Highly recommend the experience.

Amazing experience! - The trip was amazing. The marine biologist guide was incredible and had all the answers to our questions AND had the most wonderful fun facts, ive used the one about the size of blue whales farts many times already! I would 100% recommend. They also had tea, coffee, biscuits and suncream available for free on the boat. Was a magical experience. Do not bother trying to take your own photos, just enjoy the experience. They post professional ones on their Facebook after the trip. Much better than trying to take your own, just enjoy the views!

patience is a virtue - Had a great time out on the water with Naturaliste Charters and their friendly crew. Chloe and Kyle were great fun, helpful and informative. The departure point is a little tricky to find as is further down road than signs would make you believe and I hadn't realized would depart from beach - was on lookout for a pier. We headed out and saw some dolphins fairly quickly, but it was a struggle to find whales in this tail end of the season. But various boats were in communication and the skipper tried his hardest to catch up with a humpback whale and it's calf seeing their water spouts and fins, though they were not particularly playful (but this is nature). We stayed out probably past our time slot, but no luck on seeing anything spectacular. We headed back to base, thinking a distant encounter was our best view when suddenly we found another mum and calf in the bay. This time mum was teaching her calf to breach with a few spectacular leaps out the water which was an absolute joy to watch. You need a bit of luck on these things, but the crew at Naturaliste Charters worked hard and their efforts paid off in the end for us patient whale watchers.
