SUNSET COASTAL CLIFF CRUISE : Kalbarri is one of the best locations to see the sunset from the sea. Embark on a sunset cruise with Reefwalker Ocean Discovery and let us take you up close to fabulous Jacques Point, Red Bluff, Mushroom Rock, Rainbow Valley, Pot Alley and Eagle Gorge while the sun dips into the ocean and the rocks take on the colour of fire.
Saluting the days end onboard Reefwalker is certainly a must do whilst visiting Kalbarri! (BYO / camera essential)
CRAYFISH CATCH & KEEP TOUR: Kalbarri’s ocean is full of some of the world’s most premium wild-caught seafood.
Let Reefwalker take you out to experience catching our world famous Western Rocklobster!
Learn about the local Rocklobster Industry with a real-life insight into how this renowned crustacean is caught, graded and enjoyed. After boarding the boat at the Kalbarri Marina, you venture out through the river mouth & into the ocean. Come and pull the pots and cruise out in the calm of the morning to see the catch of the day. We pull up to 12 pots and it is always a gamble how many lobsters there will be or what else might have found it's way into the lobster pot... Take home a share in the catch of the day!
WHALE WATCHING: Reefwalker Ocean Discovery are the longest running whale watching company in Kalbarri and have been operating whale watching tours since 1992.
Kalbarri is privileged with seasonal visits of the majestic Humpback Whale and the occasional Southern Right Whale. They begin to migrate past Kalbarri from June
every year from the food-rich southern ocean to breeding grounds in the warm northern waters.
The whales are seen traveling back south around August en route to the colder seas to grow and mature. Following the continental shelf, they embrace the coast as they travel through the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
These majestic creatures play, frolic & bask in the pristine waters of Gantheaume Bay on their migratory route along the West Australian coastline. Each whale watching trip is an opportunity to get close to these gentle giants, witnessing a unique phenomenon right on Kalbarri's doorstep.
In the rare event we are unable to sight whales, you’re most welcome to join the following scheduled tour free of charge.
Join Reefwalker Ocean Discovery for a memorable whale watching experience! (BYO/ camera essential)
