Watch Minke Whales Up Close At Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef made up of living organisms and is so huge it’s visible from outer space! A World Heritage Site, it is an ideal spot for a vacation. But wait! It is the only place in the world where you can enjoy live encounters with the Minke and Humpback whales. With a vast ocean, Great Barrier Reef becomes home to these mighty mammals from the months of June to November and is the reason why you need to plan a Great Barrier Reef vacation soon!


Now imagine a friendly encounter with the whales – majestic, isn’t it? It is truly an otherworldly experience. While you’re in your vessel and they glide past you, it feels like you’ve seen everything in the world.

The Minkes are baleen whales almost eight metres long and are six-tonnes heavy while the Humpback whales are twelve to sixteen metres in length and can weigh around 25-30 metric tonnes. It is during their annual migration period that they’re found at the reef and Sunset Safaris through their Great Barrier Reef Tour Packages brings you closer to them.

While you make your way towards them, they’ll also start investigating your luxurious vessel. Investigators four-times your size! This shows how curious these majestic creatures are! Fun, isn’t it? Interacting with these mighty creatures is like a privilege and that’s what the Great Barrier Reef holidays can bestow you with.

The dwarf Minke whales are acrobatic and you might be able to enjoy their head-rise if you’re lucky! Whales raise their snouts above the water surface and sometimes even do a lateral roll and display their bellies! That’s quite a sight! The Great Barrier Reef tours from the Sunset Safaris will take you to the exact spots where whales will become your next best friend!

Encountering these not-so-little mammals is a great experience and will go a long way in understanding their nature. You will be so close to them you’ll realize how beautiful nature has been. For the exclusive encounters, you can go snorkelling and scuba-diving as well. You can get into the waters to see the marine wildlife up so close.

Imagine a mammal four times your size within a few metres distance, doesn’t it sound like a life-changing experience? So, what are you thinking? Go for the Great Barrier Reef Holidays Packages because it is the only place in the world where you can befriend whales. And a vacation like this will certainly be one of the ultimate Australian adventure tours.
