Whale Watching Season

May and September each year
May and September each year

Whale watching season in Apollo Bay is amazing! Apollo Bay is know for its stunning natural attractions and excellent whale watching opportunities.

The peak season for Southern Right whale watching is during their migration between May and September each year. The whales can be up to 18 metres long and showcase majestic v-shaped tail fins.

You can often spot them from your ocean view cabins and sites in our park. Talk to our friendly team in reception about the best tour options to get a closer look at these amazing creatures.

You can also check out Apollo Bay Fishing Charters for their tours will often see whales during their peak season.
