  • CLASSIC WHALE WHATCHING TOUR | 13:00

CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00

Report from Eldey: This afternoon we were happy to be sailing out as we've had a few cancelled days due to a storm. There was still a bit of swell so a few green faces but we gave them peppermint tea and sea sick pills to help. We sailed out surrounded by snowy pink mountains and enjoyed the stunning clouds. We sailed around, scanning the horizons for any sign of cetaceans. Unfortunately we were unsuccessful in finding any and therefore handed out complimentary tickets so that everyone can come again and see the bay in its full glory.
