In Byron Bay, the whale watching season lasts for around 5 to 6 months. The season begins when the whales are first sighted, which typically occurs at the end of May, and continues until the final whale pods leave our waters around early November.&nbsp;

If you&rsquo;re going whale watching in Byron Bay, the best time to book your tour would be July, as this is when migration is at its peak in New South Wales. Of course, Humpback whales can be seen at any point during the whale watching season. However, with so many more whales frequenting our waters in July, you&rsquo;re likely to spot even more action if you book a tour during this period!&nbsp;

Every year between May and November, tens of thousands of Humpback whales make the long journey from their Summer feeding grounds in Antarctica to the tropical waters of Australia&rsquo;s east coast. Operated by Blue Seafaris, this whale watching tour in Byron Bay is the perfect way to experience these gentle giants as they swim along the coastline.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

<h3>See Humpback Whales and Learn All About Their Amazing Lives</h3>

 
Not only will you be able to marvel at the sheer beauty of these ocean giants, but you&rsquo;ll also have the opportunity to learn all about them from a true expert! Your onboard marine biologist guides have degrees in Marine Science and will teach you all about Humpback whale behaviour, offering incredible insights into the lives of these fascinating creatures.

&nbsp;

<h3>Travel in Style on a Purpose-Built Vessel</h3>

 
If you&rsquo;re looking for a more intimate experience with a small tour group, this is the best whale watching cruise for you! The tour&rsquo;s Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) &quot;Wardjam&quot; is an expertly made marine vessel that encapsulates speed and elegance. This top-notch boat features comfortable suspension seating for up to 12 guests and is fast, stable, and secure, making it the ideal way to reach the whales quickly and safely.&nbsp;

As well as being a purpose-built vessel, &ldquo;Wardjam&rdquo; is also driven by a highly skilled skipper. With extensive experience filming and documenting whales all over the world, your skipper knows exactly what it takes to guarantee the best whale watching encounters every time.

&nbsp;

<h3>Encounter an Array of Other Marine Animals</h3>

 
As well as spotting a number of Humpbacks, you can also expect to see all kinds of other marine animals on this Byron Bay whale watching tour. Creatures such as dolphins, turtles and all kinds of migratory birds are regularly encountered alongside the Humpback whales, adding even more wonder and excitement to your day.&nbsp;

On the very rare chance you don&rsquo;t see any whales on your trip, you&rsquo;re more than welcome to join the next Blue Seafaris whale watching tour from Byron Bay completely free of charge. However, with such a high number of whales migrating while this tour is running, the likelihood of not seeing anything is incredibly low!

&nbsp;
