First Sighting for 2023

July 13, 2023/ Spirit Australia

Yesterday on our 2pm Southern Ocean Adventure cruise two Southern Wright Whales were spotted in Petrel Cove. This is our first sighting for 2023! It has been a very slow start to the season but fingers crossed we will gradually be seeing more and more Southern Wright Whales on our tours!

Our Southern Ocean Adventure cruise runs from Saturday - Thursday at 11am (additional times may be added). We are still keeping a close eye on whale sightings however sightings are never guaranteed on our cruises.

Thanks to our skipper, Kirk, for capturing this video.
