Experience the majesty of the annual humpback whale migration off the Northern New South Wales coastline with Ballina Byron Marine Adventures. Departing directly from the floating pontoon in front of the Ballina RSL Club, this premium 2-hour marine safari brings you face-to-face with playful humpback whales, dolphins, and sea turtles in their natural ocean environment.
Led by local marine biologists and an experienced local crew, you’ll sail aboard Cetacean One—a custom-built, highly stable ocean vessel designed for panoramic 360-degree viewing and maximum comfort.
What Makes This Ocean Adventure Unforgettable
Ballina’s prime coastal location serves as a front-row seat for the ocean's greatest wildlife show. As humpback whales travel past Cape Byron Marine Park on their migration route, Ballina Byron Marine Adventures delivers an up-close, eco-conscious encounter.
