Encounter astonishing Humpback Whales in their natural habitat as they migrate past the coastline between Ballina and Byron Bay. We depart from Ballina’s Richmond River and enter the pristine waters of Cape Byron Marine Park. Enjoy breathtaking coastal scenery while listening to live Humpback Whale song using our specialised underwater hydrophone. Our friendly Marine Biologist will share in-depth knowledge of the area & jaw-dropping encounters we experience within Byron’s Marine Park.
Each year, between May and November, southern hemisphere Humpback Whales travel north from their Antarctic summer feeding grounds, past Cape Byron headland, and on to their breeding and birthing grounds in the sub-tropics. At more than 2,500-kms, this is considered one of the longest migrations in the animal kingdom. Witnessing this stunning spectacle is easy from Australia’s most easterly point.
We are so sure you’ll spot a whale from June 1st until the 22nd October that we offer a free trip if you don’t see one on your first whale watching adventure!
Cruise Times:
7:30am, 10:00am, 12:30pm, 3:00pm
7:31am, 10:01am, 12:31am, 3:01pm
What to bring:
Between June and November, Byron Bay is one of Australia’s best destinations to watch these majestic mammals on their annual migration from their cold Antarctic summer feeding grounds to their warmer, sub-tropical breeding and birthing grounds off Australia’s coasts.

2 weeks agoFantastic experience. I’ve been snorkelling a few times with Out of the Blue & recommend it to everyone travelling to Byron. I’ve been out with Gabby, Gian & Angus they always look after everyone on board & go out of their way to make sure all guests have a great time. The marine biologist hops in the water with you & points out different marine life & information as you go.

in the last weekA well organised trip with experienced and friendly staff, safety covered off well, modern fit for purpose equipment. Perhaps my expectations were unreasonable but the visibility wasn’t great. We did see the big three of the Rocks - turtle, leopard shark, ray. Just one of each. Plenty of other smaller colourful fish. It was overcast and there was a swell which maybe contributed to the visibility. Crossing the bar on the way out was perhaps the most exciting part. We also saw dolphins on the way which was an added bonus. Overall it was good, and maybe really good on a different day. I couldn’t recommend it as a must do based on our particular day, and comparing it to other snorkelling experiences I have had (both good and bad)

2 weeks agoWent snorkeling with 'Out of the Blue Adventures' twice and what can I say. It was absolutely incredible. We saw two species of turtles, Leopard Sharks, White spotted eagle Rays, different kind of fish. If you are in Byron, definitely make sure you go snorkeling with them!!!! A big thanks goes to Gab and the crew! All of them are super friendly, kind and they make sure you have a fabulous time out there. I will definitely go again.

a month agoMy family and I had the best experience with Out of the Blue Adventures! The staff were awesome (Angus, Gabby and Emily) and they went out of their way to make sure we had the best weather conditions and underwater experience. We snorkelled with Leopard Sharks, Eagle Rays, Turtles and lots of fish. I highly recommend visiting the spectacular Julian Rocks with this awesome company and crew. We will be back for another visit as soon as we can.
