Just
30 minutes north of Brisbane, on the Redcliffe
Peninsula, (gateway to Moreton Bay) is Australia's only
purpose built whalewatching vessel Eye-Spy.
Eye Spy
represents the ultimate in whale friendly design and
technology. It is a brand new purpose built whale
watching vessel built locally at a cost of $3 million.
It is a
fully air-conditioned, luxury catamaran carrying over
300 passengers.
6 viewing
areas and platforms will significantly enhance the
whalewatching experience.
The best thing is you don’t have to travel hundreds of
kilometres from Brisbane, Redcliffe or the Sunshine
Coast to go whalewatching & enjoy this natural wonder.
Your captain Kerry Lopez is recognized as the only woman
captain skippering a whale watching venture in the South
Pacific Rim. Her crew are skilled, dedicated seamen who
will assure you a pleasant and sound whale watching
adventure.
Each year the magnificent southern humpback whales
migrate to and from Antarctica to the warm waters of
Moreton Bay, just 30 minutes north of Brisbane, home of
Brisbane Whalewatching.
As these leviathans of the deep make their way through
our warm waters, they feed, mate and play in the clean,
clear blue sea of Moreton Bay. Let us schedule a full
day whale watching tour with coach transfer for you!
Up close interaction - The whales are as inquisitive as
you are...
Intelligent and naturally curious mammals, the whales
greet their visitors with playful behaviour that will
both charm and inspire you. You’ll be struck by their
magnificent grace as these gentle giants breach, blow
and frolic only meters away!
The
Vessel's passenger comforts include:
- Six
viewing decks and large bow with surrounding decks for
unobstructed viewing - no longer will you have to
wrestle with other passengers to obtain the ultimate
vantage point!
-
Floor to ceiling glass in air-conditioned cabins -
staying inside will not hinder your viewing pleasure!
-
Comfortable seating along with her excellent sea
keeping qualities makes travelling to and from the
whales both safe and enjoyable.
-
Whale-friendly, low noise propellers minimize
underwater noise, while electronically controlled
engines reduce fuel usage and exhaust emissions making
her environmentally friendly to all marine life.
We believe that by providing people with an opportunity
to witness these amazing creatures first hand, not only
do we put a lot of smiles on faces, but offer an
increased awareness of the beauty of nature and the need
to nurture our precious wildlife.
Whilst keeping a look out you're given an excellent
commentary which provides educational information on
these huge mammals.
