Broome Whale Watching on Orcaella

Experience the Kimberley’s Great Whale Migration

Each year, around 35,000 humpback whales travel along the Kimberley coast in what’s famously known as the “Humpback Highway.” There is no better place to witness this extraordinary migration than the warm, turquoise waters off Broome.

Step aboard Orcaella, our spacious and luxurious catamaran, and prepare for an unforgettable afternoon of close-up whale encounters, expert commentary, and a spectacular Indian Ocean sunset.


Your Whale Watching Experience

Front-Row Whale Encounters

Feel the thrill as humpback whales breach, tail slap and surface just metres from the vessel. With multiple viewing decks and comfortable seating areas, Orcaella offers uninterrupted panoramic views so every guest enjoys the perfect vantage point.

Expert Commentary

Our experienced and passionate crew guide you through the waters off Broome, sharing fascinating insights into humpback whale behaviour, migration patterns, breeding rituals and the importance of the Kimberley marine ecosystem.

Afternoon Nibbles

Relax and indulge with a selection of delicious snacks served onboard as you take in the sights and sounds of the ocean.

Boom Net Adventure

For those wanting to add a splash of fun, cool off in the boom net — a safe and exhilarating way to experience the ocean while keeping an eye out for whales. (Suitable for confident swimmers; children under 12 must be supervised.)

Sunset Over the Indian Ocean

As the day winds down, witness one of Broome’s legendary sunsets. Watch the sky transform into vibrant hues of gold, orange and pink — the perfect finale to an extraordinary wildlife experience.
