Today was the start of the southern migration whale watching cruises that will run to mid November, and what a great start it was. We located a pod of some 6 or so whales just east of Point Perp and they were going off. We were not sure where to look at times as the whales were constantly active with multiple breaching and plenty of tail slapping. It doesnt get better than this. |

Jervis Bay has had some fairly poor conditions for whale watching over the last week as has most of the NSW coast. This has prevented any cruises for the last few days. It looks like the weather should get back to its normal winter pattern over the next few days so we are looking forward getting out there again. Whale numbers have been excellent this year and it shoul get even better over the next 6 weeks. Bookings 02 44415455 |

Now that the whale watching season has come to an end we are continuing withour very popular Dolphin Cruises. Jervis Bay has a resident pod of some 60 Bottlenose dolphins that can be seen all year round. Dolphins are sighted on 98% of our cruises. We are are going to display some of our dolphin photos here until the whales return in June. We will also include some of the spectacular scenery and any unique marine sightings. If you have any images taken on one of our cruises and would like to display them here you can email them to us. images@dolphincruises.com.au |

The whale watching season just gets better and better. For some reason the whales over recent days have been very active and inquisitive. Passengers on this mornings cruise enjoyed the company of four whales who spent the time breaching, tail slapping and pectral fin slapping. On a number of occassions the whales came within meters of the boat giving passengers an extra thrill. |

Unfortunatly poor sea condition prevented cruises over the last few days. Better conditions today provided the opportunity for a morning and afternoon cruise. Just the one whale sighted this morning off Beecroft and two sighted this afternoon off the Old Lighthouse. Over the next few weeks we should start seeing more of the larger pregnant females as the make their way up the coast. |

This mornings cruise provided a real treat for our passengers. About 8 whales were sighted just east of the old lighthouse feeding on small schooling fish. This was a rare opportunity as the humpbacks only feed opportunistically during the migrations. A pod of about 120 common dolphins were also sighted. |
