Whale Watching Byron Bay

Whale Watching Byron Bay commenced tours for the 2009 season on the Queens Birthday long weekend.  Passengers were not disappointed with humpback whales encountered on every tour.  Sea conditions were perfect and the whales put on an amazing performance with many breaching.  As a bonus a large pod of inshore bottle-nose dolphins is currently residing in the bay and they have done their best to upstage the humpback whales.  We have attached some photographs of the weekends tours to this post.

The main population of humpback whales is currently passing Cape Byron on their northern migration to their breeding and birthing grounds off the Great Barrier Reef.  They will continue swimming north past Byron Bay until mid August.  From August until November we will again see them returning south heading to their feeding grounds off the antarctic coast.

The weather forecast for this week is great so join us and witness this incredible natural event.
