Ocean Extreme uses the fastest vessels in town, so we can get you to and from the whales quicker than any other boat. That means our tours don’t last as long: about 2 hours from Circular Quay.

Unless it’s a windy day, you don’t have to worry about getting wet. We also supply spray jackets to keep you nice and dry. In the winter months it can get very cold out at sea, so wear several layers under our jacket to stay warm throughout the trip. Wear a beanie and gloves on colder days.

Tour departs from the Campbell’s Cove Pontoon at Circular Quay. Passengers must arrive 15 minutes prior to scheduled departure time.

This is a high-speed adventure! Instead of a slow catamaran, you’ll ride on Sydney’s fastest commercial powerboats (reaching speeds up to 80km/h). Its low-to-the-water, open design puts you eye-to-eye with the whales with 360-degree, unobstructed views.

Yes. Tickets are adult tickets only. Because it is an exhilarating offshore ocean ride, all passengers must be over 1.3 metres tall. It is strictly not suitable for anyone who is pregnant or has pre-existing back, neck or heart conditions.

Our high speed allows us to cover massive ground, giving us a 97% sighting success rate. However, if no whales are spotted during your safari, you will receive a 100% FREE return cruise voucher to try again another day!
