Secure Your Spot for an Unforgettable Whale Watching Adventure from Sydney’s CBD!
Join us aboard Barefoot Blue for an incredible up-close encounter with humpback whales, right from the heart of Sydney. Each year, over 40,000 whales migrate along Australia’s east coast—and you can witness this breathtaking spectacle just minutes from the CBD.
With Captain Dean at the helm and our friendly, knowledgeable Barefoot Crew, you’ll sail on a custom-built 16m whale-viewing catamaran, designed for comfort and adventure. Featuring three walk-around viewing decks, spacious seating, and all-weather protection, Barefoot Blue offers the perfect balance—small enough for a personal experience, yet big enough to handle all conditions safely.
More than just whales—you may also encounter dolphins, seals, minke whales, sperm whales, and even southern right whales. Our passionate crew, with decades of ocean experience (and even underwater documentary filming), share their infectious enthusiasm and expertise, making every trip unforgettable.
