4 Things to Remember Before Taking a Winter Whale Watching Tour in Sydney

October 23, 2019 / By Nicole Helvetius
Winter Whale Watching Tour

Whether you are a tourist looking to catch a glimpse of your first humpback whale or a local who has never gone on a whale watching tour, you won’t regret booking a cruise. Whale watching in Sydney runs from April to November, humpbacks migrate from the Antarctic to give birth to their young. They choose to give birth in the warmer waters of Australia as it is a more suitable environment for their offspring.

    Pack Appropriate Clothing

If you’re a tourist and unfamiliar with Sydney during this period, it can get really cold, especially out at sea. You’ll be on the ocean for a couple of hours, so it is vitally important that you come prepared. The wind that hits you while on a cruise can be a lot colder than when you are on land, so remembering to bring warm clothing is essential. Even if it isn’t that cold on land, the temperatures can drop considerably as you get further out to sea.

Remember to pack all of these items to guarantee an enjoyable trip:

  • Socks and comfortable footwear
  • Long pants
  • Warm sweater and rain jacket
  • Gloves and a hat

All of these items are an essential pack, especially if you are bringing along children. Having enough layers is never a problem, you can always take some off if you need.

  1. Smartphone or Camera

With the emergence of smartphones, many of us now don’t use a camera, but to get that crucial shot, you really need a good quality device when whale watching. A smartphone will capture some great images and help you to video the event, but a camera ensures you get some memorable pictures of the whales. While you’re out whale watching in Sydney, remember to take a selfie, so you can show off to all your friends.

  1. Protect Your Eyes & Skin

Just because it is winter doesn’t mean you can forget sunglasses and sun lotion. Depending on the time you set sail, the sun can be strong and affect your view if you don’t wear sunglasses. It reflects off the water, making it difficult to see the whales. The sun’s rays also bound off the ocean, putting your skin at risk of over exposure if not properly protected.

  1. Eating Before You Go?

Most of us have no problems with seasickness, but if you do, you may want to eat a light meal at least 2 hours before leaving the dock. Seasickness tablets should also be packed as part of your contingency plan. If you are going out on a sea trip for the first time, it is better to bring seasickness medicine just in case you feel nauseous.

To ensure you get the most from your whale watching tour, make sure you read through this article and take all of the points mentioned above into consideration. Going on a winter whale watching tour in Sydney is one of the most enjoyable things you can do when visiting the city. Whale watching gives you the opportunity to see one of natures most charming creatures up close.
