When you go whale watching with Jervis Bay Wild, we guarantee you’re in for a wonderful experience. But don’t just take our word for it. Check out these 6 other great reasons that whale watching needs to be added to your bucket list today.
1. Whales are amazing.
From their exciting athletic prowess to their amazing, mysterious whale songs and sounds. Simply put, whales are nothing short of amazing. A whale watch is the perfect way to celebrate and appreciate these majestic cetaceans.
2. Supporting eco-friendly tourism and learning about wildlife is a great thing to do.
While you might opt to visit a zoo or other type of wildlife establishment, the best way to support our world’s creatures is by promoting eco-tourism and organisations that prioritise the wellbeing of wildlife. When you sail with Jervis Bay Wild, you can feel good about your choice to pair with a certified eco-tourism provider.
3. Whales are deeply connected to our cultural heritage.
Whales have a significant place in the myth and literature of cultures across the globe. Throughout time, they’ve represented power, mystery, and even nature itself. Why not join in the great heritage of whales by witnessing these iconic mammals in person?
4. You deserve some Vitamin “Sea”!
Even science proves it: there are definite health benefits to be enjoyed from spending time on or near the ocean. And when you add connections with wildlife into the mix, you’re bound to have a relaxing, joy-filled day. If you’ve been missing out on your daily recommended dose of Vitamin Sea, book in for a whale watching tour and watch your levels soar.
5. There’s no better way to see humpback whales in action.
If you’re interested in seeing whales, a whale watching tour is absolutely the best way to do so. No other option exists to let you get so near to these incredible creatures in the wild. Observing them in their own natural habitat is key to seeing them at their most real and uninhibited. You’ll be amazed at the sightings you can get while on a whale watch, and other marine life such as sharks and rays are frequently spotted as well.
6. A whale watch creates incredible family memories.
Looking for a day out that the whole family will truly love? Whale watching is beloved by people of all ages, and many of our Jervis Bay Wild guests report that their whale eco cruise was a highlight of their holiday. You’ll be talking about your whale watching fun for years to come.
