Tweed Ocean Adventures

WHY IS OUR Gold Coast WHALE WATCHING experience different from the rest?

  • Tweed Snorkelling & Whale Watching Adventures (Gold Coast ) is not your ordinary whale watching experience.
  • Tweed Whale Watching is on board a  6.4 Naiad Inflatable vessel, 2 x 60 Yamaha’s.
  • Offers a fast safe trip of 15 min to the migrating humpback whales off the Tweed Heads Coast (Gold Coast).
  • It is the ultimate "back to nature experience" for those who want to be apart of the Humpback whales elements.

Humpback whaleTweed Heads coast line (Gold Coast) has the longest whale watching season for seeing the humpback whales as they travel pass Tweed Heads (Gold Coast) to the warmer waters off Hervey Bay to mate and give birth. Heading south they pass Tweed Heads (Gold Coast) showing off their new baby calves. Being very playful and proud parents.

The loving gentle nature of the Humpback whale will give you a gift of joy, bring you a sense of amazement on board “Sacred Spirit”.

Humpback Whales are very curious and gentle creatures so be prepared when they move in so close you could almost reach out for a pat.

Tweed Snorkelling & Whale Watching Adventures was front page of The Courier Mail 14th July 2006.

This particular day on the Tweed Heads coast (Gold Coast) was a couple of humpback whales obviously courting and in love, synchronized tail slapping. A few metres apart, they swam lazily, rising briefly to display  their lump covered muzzles before arching back into the water. As mist roared from blow holes, it looked as if they’d dived beneath us. For a long minute, the humpback whales vanished. Then , as if out of no where, a whale surfaced 3m off the vessel.

  • It was beautiful says Kathy ,of Kirra.
  • A humbling experience...
  • I get the feeling they are so trusting says Philip Hammond  from Courier Mail.
  • One of the many extraordinary experiences that can happen on board “Sacred Spirit” off the Tweed Heads coast (Gold Coast).

Watched the video of our 'amazing whale watching' trip. AWESOME!  Thanks for an incredible experience and for your very special 'service' that you provided for Joan and myself--we still can't believe we had the whole boat to ourselves--BRILLIANT!  Within 10 minutes of our trip out to sea we witnessed many 'pods of whales' AMAZING.Joan is in her 70's and a true Aussie who has been whale watching most of her life but this was simply the BEST EVER whale watching experience she has been on. It was only my second time and the first on a large chartered whale watching tour but never got 'up close and personal' like this trip! THANK YOU for an amazing, fun time, very 'SPECIAL MEMORIES FOREVER'.Thanks to Ellie, Pedro and yourself Erez for an unforgettable experience, SUPERB. The whales were an arms length away swimming towards us as we drifted silently on the ocean. Mother and calf swimming around us, under us and 'talking to us, the excitement hard to contain not just from us but the 'crew' as well   -Ellie,Pedro and Erez! INCREDIBLE-THANKS.
