About this activity

Wilsons Promontory National Park
2 h 30 min
Cruise along the coastline, your eyes scanning the horizon for the spouts of Humpback Whales and Southern Right Whales. With their breathtaking breaches and tail slaps, these creatures provide a genuinely mesmerizing display. Keep an eye out for the striking Orcas, known for their black-and-white markings.
Our journey also takes us to Kanowna Island, home to one of the largest Australian Fur Seal colonies. Witness the antics of these seals as they bask on the rocky shores and frolic in the waves, their calls adding to the symphony of the sea. Watch for playful dolphins, often seen riding the waves alongside our vessel.
If time permits, we will also visit South Point, the southernmost tip of mainland Australia, and the historic Wilsons Promontory Lighthouse. Standing since 1859, this lighthouse offers a glimpse into the maritime history of the region and is an iconic fixture along the coastline.
