We are offering you an opportunity to come whale watching with us during the southern migration of the now ever-increasing number of whales heading to their feeding grounds in Antarctica.
Experience whale watching under sail aboard the 19m Pelican 1, from Bermagui. The 19-metre sailing catamaran and her crew specialise in marine research and education all around Australia, including studies on Blue and Sperm Whales. Bermagui is her home port and she’s a familiar sight during whale watching season. Enjoy being on board our wonderful vessel at sea with the wind in her sails. Watch the humpback whales, albatross, shearwater and dolphins. Haul a rope or kick back as the Sapphire Coast slips silently by.
Tours begin September 24, with 3 hour trips daily at 9am. You can help to sail the catamaran, or relax on the covered deck with a drink as the coastline slips away.
Departing: East Jetty, Bermagui Harbour near Saltwater Fish and Chips.
Bookings are Essential
Phone: Garry 0425727553 or email:garry@svpelican.com.au
Cost: $60 per person, $50 per concession (includes a light morning tea).
