Surfrafting Morning Tour Bookings & more info

Surfrafting Morning Tour

From $50
This new and unique 'Australian adventure activity' has been developed on the beaches of Coffs Harbour. Surf rafting has you surfing the waves in 12' self-bailing whitewater rafts with plenty of 'thrills and spills'. The latest design in rafts make it relatively easy to paddle out through the surf and then onto the cresting waves for a ride of a lifetime back to the beach - most times (you do get a little swimming practice at times!)
You and your guide will paddle our special rafts out through the surf onto the wave and surf back into the beach. We are the first in the world to develop this activity into a commercial tour. Each participant wears a lifejacket & helmet.
Minimum 4/ Maximum 30.
Whale Watching at Coffs Harbour Bookings & more info

Whale Watching at Coffs Harbour

From $20
Come whale watching in Coffs Harbour...you are guaranteed to see one.

Whales travel unusually close to Coffs Harbour and it is rare not to see whales within 15-20 minutes after leaving port and with sighting success rates exceeding 98% last year, a whale watching cruise in Coffs Harbour is an unforgettable, lifetime experience.
We have a purpose built 10m motor sailing catamaran that has been Coffs favourite boat for 14 years.

The boat has excellent viewing and passenger numbers are limited to ensure there are no crowds - forget the huge boats carrying hundreds of people our maximum number of passengers is 23.

Come and see the whales with the crew that love them as much as you will. For us its not about money and lots of passengers - its a passion!

Our harbour has safe access (no sandbars) and as your enjoyment and comfort are our priority, we only cruise when whether conditions permit. As we rarely have to travel far to locate whales, our cruises are generally 2 1/2 hours in duration - this means less time travelling and more time with the whales.

With whales as close as the harbour entrance (yes we have the photos), the cheapest cruises on the eastern seaboard of Australia and a convenient location between Sydney and Brisbane, why would you choose anywhere else to experience the splendor of whale watching.

But we warn you it is infectious! We have had one passenger do 70 cruises in a season and has been a regular for many years. It really does not matter if you have seen whales before, the thrill of travelling beside a 40 tonne creature or seeing them playfully slap their flukes or tail or to see them breach out of the water is to experience one of the world's true wonders.
Maximum number of passengers is 23.
