Private Whale Watching Charters GOLD COAST
From AUD
Experience the magic of the annual humpback whale migration on your own exclusive private charter with Beachcomber Charters.
Gather your family or friends and enjoy a 2.5-hour offshore whale watching adventure for up to 8 guests aboard Beachcomber, our comfortable and spacious vessel. With your group having the boat exclusively to yourselves, you’ll enjoy a relaxed and intimate encounter with these incredible marine giants.
Rather than chasing the whales, we cruise gently along the famous “Whale Highway,” allowing these magnificent creatures to approach naturally while you take in the breathtaking ocean scenery. Keep your camera ready for spectacular breaches, tail slaps and unforgettable close encounters.
Guests aged 18 years and over are invited to enjoy a complimentary glass of Prosecco while raising a toast to one of nature’s greatest migrations.
Departure: Howard Street Boat Ramp, Runaway Bay, Gold Coast. Or call us for an alternate location closer to you (arranged by request) *
For your comfort and safety, this charter operates only when sea conditions are suitable:
Swell less than 1.5 metres

If offshore conditions are unsuitable, your booking can be converted to one of our popular alternative private experiences, including:

This flexibility ensures your group can still enjoy an unforgettable day on the water, whatever the conditions.
