Why We Love This Unique Experience

Dive into an unforgettable experience and swim with majestic whales off the coast of Gold Coast! Spend 3-4 hours offshore with the incredible Humpback whales in a small group setting, with a maximum of eight participants. There are over 35,000 Humpback whales along Australia's East coast, ensuring that sightings are guaranteed, although it's up to the whales if they choose to swim with you.

Your knowledgeable skipper has vast experience swimming with whales worldwide and is adept at recognizing happy and curious whale behaviour. The group size is kept small to enhance the chances of a unique and intimate encounter, as large groups can be off-putting to these shy giants. Gear up in 5mm freedive suits with hoods, along with top-quality masks and fins to keep you warm and comfortable during the experience. The fast and comfortable boat will swiftly transport you to the whales, maximizing your time in the water.

Embark from the Fingal Head Boat Ramp and prepare to encounter the Humpback whales under the surface alongside a guide and just seven other swimmers. Glide through the water in pursuit of a friendly and in-water interaction with these magnificent creatures aboard the aptly named "Whale Rider" boat. This experience includes the guidance of an English-speaking expert, ensuring a safe and educational encounter. An ideal gift for nature enthusiasts or anyone seeking a truly unique and unforgettable adventure.

Experience Overview:

Swim With Whales In Gold Coast

In a small group with a maximum of eight people we will spend 3-4 hours offshore with the Humpback whales. There are over 35,000 Humpbacks on Australia's East coast so sightings are guaranteed although the whales decide if they want to swim with us. Our skipper is highly experienced swimming with whales around the World and is very familiar with identifying happy and curious whale behaviour. Our group size is kept to a minimum of just eight swimmers to increase the chances of a unique and special encounter. Despite their size humpbacks can be shy and large groups of people in the water are definitely not ideal for a good whale interaction.
To keep you warm we have 5mm freedive suits with hoods and quality masks and fins. Our boat is fast and comfortable and gets us to the Whales quickly.
