Dunsborough Whale Watching Cruise, Margaret River WA

Dunsborough Whale Watching Cruise, Margaret River WA: This is an extraordinary nature based experience finding and watching whales interact in their natural environment in the Margaret River coastal region from the picturesque seaside town of Dunsborough. From September, Humpback whales pass this region of Geographe Bay as they head south again to the feeding grounds of Antarctica. October is a time to witness the giant Blue Whale with their calves in tow. These calm protective waters make an ideal location for this whale watching cruise.

As you cruise the blue Geographe Bay, the waters are so clear you can see the emerald seagrass meadows below, the foundation of an ecosystem more productive than a coral reef, and a nursery for some of our most highly prized fish species. Pods of common and bottlenose dolphins often join our tours, surfing alongside, or treating us to stunning aerial acrobatic displays.
