Whale Watching on vessel ORCA - Manly Wharf Departure

Jump onboard the and take part in Sydney's most personal and most exciting whale watching experience. 

You will be taken on an exciting and unforgettable journey to see the whales in their natural habitat on a purpose-built, military spec, high speed RIB.

Your high-speed whale watching boat departs from Manly Wharf before turning up the power and blasting towards the open ocean. After speeding through the heads and into the Tasman Sea, you’re taken on a high-speed cruise out to see the whales – your skipper is in constant contact with other boat drivers to find the most friendly and approachable whale pods.

*All passengers must be at least 12 years old. Our other vessel, OSPREY, has a minimum age of 6 years old.

Tours depart from the Manly Lifestyle Club (formerly the Manly Kayak Centre), located next to Felons Brewing on the eastern side of the Manly Wharf Complex.

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled departure time and wait at the top of the stairs for the vessel to arrive.

All check in procedures will be completed on board, and belongings can be safely stored on the vessel during the tour.
