WELCOME
The Coastal area around Twofold bay is a great place to view whales. The greatest numbers of these are Humpback whales that pass through on their southern migration from Queensland waters, bound for Antarctica, their home. We see mothers with their energetic babies from mid September to late November. Occassionally Orca are also seen at this time. The other whales we see are Minke, Southern right, and if you are lucky a Blue whale. The very tall and slender blow (spout) from a blue whale is quite unique but sighting a big blue is quite rare.
The photographs in the galleries on the left have been taken over a number of years, from various vessels all out of Eden NSW. Most from our 4.5 meter rib, quite daunting in those close encounters. For those wanting the best Whale watch experience we recommend the CatBalou for their hospitality, dedication and passion for whales.
