There’s something about heading out of Sydney Harbour that feels different once you pass the Heads. On this cruise, run by Captain Cook, you’ll start off with the familiar sights , Opera House, Harbour Bridge , before the boat pushes into the open water. That’s where the real wait begins. Whales migrate along this coast, and seeing one up close is a mix of patience and luck. Some days you’ll spot tails flicking in the distance, other times they breach so suddenly that the whole deck gasps. It’s not staged or predictable, which is what makes it exciting.
