Whale watching in Sydney

We had wanted to do this while visiting the Gold Coast in QLD, however due to unfortunate weather we weren't able to so I jumped at a Travelzoo voucher that included a 3 hour whale watching tour and one drink from the bar for $39 each. This was a really good deal as most started at $50 for just the tour! The company was Sydney Whale Watching Adventure Cruises and we had a fantastic time! We discovered that even with a nice camera getting a good picture of the whales is difficult but luckily we managed a few OK ones.

My favorite part was as we were headed back we found a baby whale that was just showing off. Up until that point we hadn't seen the whales breaching more than a couple of times, but this little whale seemed to be playing and continuously breaching. I got a video of it but unfortunately it's too large to upload. I will have to try to make it smaller to post up for everyone to see.

Corporate Attire at a bargain
