Whale watching cruises may not run every day due to a number of reasons:
booking numbers, weather conditions or other cruise commitments of cruise operators therefore whale sightings may not be posted for every day.

Another day of excellent conditions for whale watching. A female humpback with 2 calves were sighted on the cruise today.
They spent some time tail slapping before continuing south.
With the number of reports of whale sightings it would seem the migration past Jervis bay will continue for another 2 weeks or so. Don't miss out!

Poor sea conditions have prevented whale sightings over the last few days. Conditions should improve by the end of this week. The cruises run daily as long as sea conditions are good. Whale watching runs to the end of October.
