The Sperm Whale and Long Finned Pilot Whales stole the show from the Orca today as all three elusive species were sighted in the Bremer Canyon.

We had the perfect opportunity to capture what remained of an Orca’s morning meal and with a little bit of patience a small amount of squid was collected

Then there it was, misty blows straight ahead and two of the largest males we have seen so far this season surfaced in all their glory.

Small strips of white were flying past us in the beaks of Flesh Footed Shearwater and enormous Albatross… the Orca were feeding on squid!

There was energy in the air as we arrived where distant blows were sighted and the flash of black and white captured our attention as they flew past our bow.

We had an exceptional day with the Orca of the Bremer Canyon as we sighted tall blows in the distance and upon our arrival we were surrounded by Orca!

Shortly after arriving in the Bremer Canyon they were there, black dorsals breaking the waters surface as half a dozen pod members surfaced together…

The fast porpoising movement of 40+ Long Finned Pilot Whales racing across the Bremer Canyon certainly is a beautiful sight.

Extraordinary☀ That was the best way to describe the day we had in the Bremer Canyon today as we departed Bremer Bay in picture perfect conditions. Common Dolphins greeted us and we sighted three Sunfish in under an hour, that is a new record! Beautiful Albatross and Shearwaters lingered close to the vessel but it was just after…

The Southern Ocean was sparkling blue today as we made our way into the beautiful morning and sighted a cloud of Flesh Footed Shearwater focusing their attention on something at the surface. We waited and carefully scanned the area for any signs of activity before a mighty “whoosh” exhalation from an Orca just meters away signaled we…

Took a trip this morning from Fremantle port, cannot get over the hospitality and attention to detail. We spoke about it all day, the boat is clean and so well presented with refreshments. The experience itself was next to none we all thouroughly enjoyed every minute. We even stayed out a while longer to witness some spectacular whales. From start to finish I cannot recommend this enough. The girls on board were so friendly and really had a passion for what they spoke about. Thank you so much for our enjoyable morning!

I've been whale watching a few times before but my latest tour with Whale Watch Western Australia really took my breath away! The boat was incredibly luxurious (looked to be the nicest of all the competition), the staff were so passionate with their commentary and they clearly had a huge amount of respect for the Whales. Will definitely be coming again soon!

Had a wonderful time at Whale Watch WA last week. The staff, the commentary and the way they treat the whales is just amazing. We left from Fremantle jetty, exactly at 9 and within minutes we had dolphins racing the boat. Within another few minutes, the crew spotted 2 or 3 whale pods - too good, as i thought we may have to go around looking for some time. We could see a calf breaching many times from a distance, but as soon as the boat got close, the whales started moving away. Of course this is no fault of Whale Watch WA - this is nature. They were very respectful to the whales and only approached them very quietly. The crew were very helpful and gave us a very good commentary about the whale's behavior patterns etc. Though we couldn't get very close to the whales (as probably what i pictured in my mind before going... too many Attenborough documentaries :-) ) - it was totally worth it. In the end, we got close enough to literally hear the whale breath.Overall, top notch service, very well maintained boat, comfortable ride (because it's a catamaran, i think) and superb staff. I don't think there is a better whale watch tour group in Perth. 7 stars.

If you think you've seen whales because you've seen a glimmer of a splash, 10km off-shore or from a cruise ship, do yourself a favour- hop on this cruise and go and see them up close ! ! !Jade, Gemma and the family made us feel right at home from the start and have a vast knowledge of everything you ever wanted to know (and everything you didn't know you wanted to know!) 15 minutes into the cruise and all of a sudden, there were whales everywhere ! I'm not talking about splashes in the distance, the ships engine is so quiet that the whales hardly took any notice and came right up close ! Gemma explained each movement and we soon learnt that there were multiple pods of whales that were all slowly migrating south with their new calfs. This area, just off Rottnest island is a bit of a resting area for them so you literally get to spend over two hours watching them frolic around. There must have been easily over 30 whales - with countless spectacular breaches! It truly is an amazing experience and you really can't say you've seen a whale until you see them up close with Whale Watch, Western Australia. - This is one of the best places in the world to see them up close!

This was a great day out and is a must do for locals and tourists. The team are awesome and really put a personal touch on the day with their in depth knowledge. We saw 30+ humpbacks doing their thing about half-way to Rottnest. Plenty of sick jumps, water slaps and tail waves which got the crowd going. I almost struggled to get enough photos of the whales as each time I had the camera ready, there was another pod popping up! The boat is super clean, well maintained and comfortable. We were cruising around 30knots and I could barely tell except for the wind. We had just under 2 hours to follow the whales around and watch them do their thing. 10/10 would recommend

Highly recommend! Amazing hospitality by the crew from start to finish. They have vast knowledge about whales and we were informed on how whales communicate, where they migrate to, their habits, and more. We spotted an amazingly beautiful mother humpback whale and her calf doing their thing. Truly an incredible experience.

I've had the incredible opportunity to jump on board Whale Watch Western Australia to see the beautiful Humpbacks and Southern Rights in Augusta and the amazing Orcas in Bremer Bay. Both times the crew were absolutely lovely, super attentive and extremely kind. I 100% recommend Whale Watch Western Australia! You guys rock!

A very well run family owned business. It was our first time watching whales and we caught it in June from Augusta. The crew were very knowledgable and cared well for their customers. Little acts such as bringing blankets out to the bow and even helping with the vomit bags showed they really cared. We spent some time in Flinders Bay looking for groups of whales, while getting commentary on whale and other marine animal behaviour. Highly recommended. The swells were quite large on the day we were out, so be prepared and take some sea sickness pills an hour or two beforehand - it will make a huge diff!

Went on the 2 hour whale watching cruise from Augusta and absolutely loved it. They lived up to their promise and got us super close to a number of humpback whales. 2 hours was the perfect amount of time as well. The boat was super plush which was perfect when the kids needed to warm up or a bit of lie down

A spectacular experience by a very professionally run company. The staff were very knowledgable and the commentary engaging, you could tell the lady commentating was enjoying her role, she was fab. It looks like a family company and they are very good at what they do. The boat was very modern and spotless. My photography skills are lacking but one member of staff was taking photos of the action which we were invited to download off the website later that day so I have some great pics of what we saw too.

Really fantastic trip, highly recommend this family run operation. They're incredibly knowledge and friendly. Our first day out the conditions were quite bad so they let everyone on board come again free of charge. Definitely go!
