Hinchinbrook Explorer Departing at 10.00am and 1.30pm daily during Whale Watching Season. This catamaran was originally designed to operate in the Southern Ocean waters of the Great Australian Bight. At 30 meters (100 feet) in length she is well at home in the local coastal waters of Port Stephens. She provides you with a very comfortable and safe journey. She has full walk around decks for viewing and large air conditioned indoor areas. MV Spirit Departing at 11.00am daily during Whale Watching Season (and additional cruises available during NSW School Holidays). This catamaran is smaller than Hinchinbrook Explorer at 18 meters, however this intimate vessel is still twin level, with walk around viewing deck with 360 degree views. Being the smaller of vessels you can expect to be still amazed by these magnificent creatures

Lovely staff and vessel. A bit long as we tried to find whales. A long time on the boat. Great to see seals, birds and some far sightings of three whales. Might be better to do dolphin cruise as it is shorter.

This boat is a good size as you can move around easily under cover and it feels very stable. There are food and drinks on board and plenty of places to sit upstairs, downstairs, inside or out with opening windows for fresh air. We saw a total of 7 whales including mothers and calves. At 2.5 hours it could be a little shorter but is quite good value. The commentary was interesting, educational and humorous.

The Osprey was a very comfortable boat, the crew were great and seeing multiple whales interacting with each other was amazing.
