By far the best way to see the giants of the sea upclose is by jumping aboard the region's increasingly popular whale-watching cruises.
One of the South Coast’s biggest whale and dolphin-watching operators, Dolphin Watch Cruises, has daily whale & dophin watching cruises to meet the growing demand. Dolphin Watch Cruises is Jervis Bays original & biggest cruise company where you can see Dolphins and other Marine Park wildlife as well as the majestic cliffs and famous white beaches that surround Jervis Bay.

Large pods of whales, including the acrobatic humpback variety, have been spotted on recent cruises off Wollongong and the South Coast with southern right, pilot, killer, fin and minky whales also seen.
Whale watching is from May - November with Dolphin Watches all year round.
“Wollongong’s magnificent coastline provides the perfect viewing platform for more whales on the South Coast than we’ve ever seen before”, said Tourism Wollongong General manger Greg Binskin. “Wollongong boasts a relaxed seaside atmosphere, fresh air, deluxe beachside accommodation, stylish cafes and restaurants, art galleries, rainforests and Australia’s biggest temple so there’s lots to do after watching the whales”.
