Whale Watching is a A MUST DO Gold Coast experience.

We had a fun and memorable family adventure cruising to the Humpback Highway with the amazing crew from Spirit of Gold Coast Whale Watching to watch these amazing creatures as they migrated north.

You couldn't be in safer or friendlier hands than booking a whale watching cruise with Spirit of Gold Coast.

do you have any tips for determining if a whale watching company/tour is ethical? i live in the puget sound area and i’ve always wanted to go, but i’m wary of picking a service that isn’t operating with best practices for the health of the wildlife in mind

That's amazing! It's been a dream of mine to see the wild orcas in the Pacific Northwest since I was a tiny kid obsessively rereading Killer Whales of the World. Unfortunately, I've never been to that region, nor have I ever lived near the coast for longer than 2 months, so I'm not really an expert on whale watching. But I did reach out to a few marine biologists and naturalists living in the area for their suggestions! Maya's Legacy and Outer Island Excursions were Puget Sound whale watching tours they recommended.

NOAA and Be Whale Wise are good resources for whale watching guidelines, and provide a hotline for reporting violations (don't feel like you're a snitch, it's necessary to protect the animals!). In general, whale watchers should stay 100 yards away from cetaceans (200 yards if they are killer whales), and responsible whale watching vessels will cut their engines to avoid disrupting the animals. Ships should never attempt to run down or cut off whales, bait them with food, and allow passengers to enter the water with them. Overall, I think Salish Sea tours are better about this than say, Florida or Baja California, but still worth keeping in mind.

I'm personally not a fan of whale watching tours that use drones, since I've seen a lot of footage on whale watchers' social media taken from drones that are flown way too close to the animals. I would prefer drones only be used by researchers or professional wildlife videographers with proper permitting.

There are a few certifications for whale watching companies, but I'm not really sure which, if any, hold merit. You could also check the company's website to see if any of their staff are credentialed in marine biology or conservation science.

I hope that was helpful! Happy whale watching!

When people journey to the delightful coastal town of Bremer Bay, one of their foremost plans often includes embarking on a whale-watching adventure. Situated along the southern expanse of Western Australia, this area is famed for its boundless stretches of sandy beaches, offering an ideal perch for an extraordinary encounter with orcas.

The immaculate waters of Bremer Bay play a dual role, serving as both a vital feeding hub and a pivotal stop along the migratory route of these entrancing marine creatures. This unique blend of circumstances establishes it as the perfect locale for an indelible Bremer Bay Orca Tours.
