5Great experience to see the whales
After being rained out the prior day, wasn't sure how likely it would be to see whales. On the way out, saw 2 dolphins which was great. Captain and staff were wonderful telling us what to look for to find the whales. The captain was incredible finding the whales and then watching them breech several more times. Super informative made tis one of the highlights from my trip.

5Whale of a Time in Port Stephens!
Fantastic whale watching experience with Moonshadow TQL! The whole trip was really well organised and the crew were friendly, knowledgeable and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. Seeing whales up close in their natural environment was incredible and definitely the highlight of our Port Stephens trip. The crew shared interesting information throughout the cruise and worked hard to make sure everyone had a good viewing opportunity. The boat was comfortable and there was plenty of space to enjoy the views. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area — such a memorable experience and we’d absolutely do it again!

About Newcastle
Newcastle is a coal-port city at the mouth of the Hunter River in New South Wales, with surf beaches, ocean baths and a lighthouse on a long breakwater.
Newcastle began as a convict settlement in 1804 and grew around coal and, later, steelmaking, and its harbour is still among the largest coal ports in the world. The centre curves around the water, with Christ Church Cathedral on the hill and heritage buildings along Hunter Street. Nobbys Head, a headland topped by a lighthouse, is joined to the shore by a long breakwater, and Fort Scratchley, a nineteenth-century coastal fort, guards the harbour mouth.
