Broome Whale Watching

Humpback whale and snubfin dolphin eco-cruises off Broome aboard Orcaella, a purpose-built 50-foot catamaran, working the waters that some 35,000 humpbacks pass through on their annual migration. Trips range from a 3.5-hour snubfin dolphin cruise to a four-to-five-hour whale-watching and sunset run, with private charters also available. The boat carries eco-certification and the operator points to a shelf of tourism awards.
