About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- sarahlQ6212EK0 contributionsWonderful whale watching!Review from our eight year old “It was really enjoyable and I really liked seeing all those whales.” And from our six year old “I liked the boat ride and watching the whales”. Thanks for a memorable trip. We especially liked how the skipper was respectful of being in the whales’ space and not trying to get too close, while making sure we got a great view. The skipper and Kate made us feel welcome and gave great information about the whales. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again.Written 1 October 2024
- DarrenH25310 contributionsGreat viewsViews were great. Hosts were brilliant even got to see whales on the cruise. Lobster dip was great. Worth every cent!!!!Written 29 September 2024
- jillwZ8437ZG0 contributionsWhale watching in KalbarriIt was a lovely morning out on the sea with lots of whale and dolphin sightings. Staff were very friendly and kept us well informed as to where the whales were.Written 29 September 2024
- lisak85890 contributionsFantastic morning whale watching!Amazing morning out whale watching with Kalbarri Rock Lobster Tours and charters. The crew were great and very knowledgeable and the captain clearly knew his buisness getting us out to see heaps of whales all the while always taking into account the whales well being. The kids and I had a ball and we can't recommend Kalbarri Rock Lobster Tours enough!Written 28 September 2024
- rebeccamX2511OY0 contributionsJumping whale!Amazing few hours! Saw loads of whales - breaching, fins, tails and even a jump! Weather was perfect and hosts very friendly, professional and knowledgeable!!Written 25 September 2024
- A1553NVjohns0 contributionsLovely sceneryGreat views, captain even gave us a look at the front and kids loved the captains seat. The home made prawn and salmon dip was a treatWritten 24 September 2024
- Warwick13080 contributionsWhale sighting was a bonusWeather was beautiful and the coastal cliffs were fantastic to view. During the tour, a passenger saw a whale slapping its fins. The captain took off so we could get a closer look at the whale. It was so exciting and unexpected.Written 22 September 2024
- Quest225348689260 contributionsWhale watchingMy wife and I throughly enjoyed our outing and there were plenty of whales to keep us entertained. We also had a shark swim around the boat obviously looking for a free feed. The crew were well versed in what they had to do and the boat itself was very clean and well maintained. A great day on the water.Written 28 August 2024
- marilyncU1774EH0 contributionsHighly recommend Kalbarri Rock Lobster tours.We did both the sunset cruise and the whale watching tour, both of which were excellent. On the sunset cruise we also saw quite a few whales and dolphins, and Vaughn went out of his way to take us closer to the activity (even though the sunset cruise does not focus on whale watching!). Plus the lobster dip is yum. On the whale watching tour we enjoyed seeing a number of whales and dolphins again. Even though they were more elusive that day, we were able to spot them and watch their activities. Vaughn was right when he told us that if you see a whale's tail go up, they are probably going to dive down and would be under for up to 45 minutes! We saw at least three different tails go up, whereupon the whales disappeared again. Huge respect for them and for Kate and Vaughn, who made both trips so enjoyable.Written 21 August 2024
- W2110NOtraceyh0 contributionsBest cruise everOmg what an amzaing tour.. staff is so friendly and we also saw whales on this tour.. a must do for anyone visiting kalbarriWritten 15 August 2024
- alexhG985QS0 contributionsWhale watching tourWent out on the whale watching tour and it was absolutely awesome! Not only were the staff on the boat really nice and very informative about the whales, they were also happy to answer any questions asked regarding the tour. We were up close and personal with the whales which is an opportunity not many people get to have. Was absolutely incredible. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!Written 8 August 2024
- Airzee0 contributionsRock Lobster Pot Pull TourWe met at the marina at 7am then headed out to sea to check the Lobster Pots, Vaughn was our skipper and Kate was the deckhand you don’t have to travel out to far, to collect the pots Vaughn has a wealth of knowledge that he shares as you a cruising along we pulled up 10-11 pots the catch is shared with everyone on the boat at the end. While out there you get a little taster of lobster boiled and bbq. The pots are then put back on the way in. We paid cash on the day or you can pay online. I would throughly recommend this 2 hr tour it was great value for money. We would do it again if staying in Kalbarri again in our travels.Written 4 August 2024

What a great morning out in the boat, with a talk about lobster industry .
They pulled up 12 lobster pots and my husband and I both took home 3 each.
Gave us a snack of a small lobster roll and grilled lobster. Also explained how to cook at home, which we bbq .
Well worth it

Early morning start. What an absolute delight our tour was. So much experience, knowledge, fun & information about lobster fishing. Vaughan & Kate were great. We had a fabulous time tasting lobster rolls & lobster bites on board as well as taking home a share of the spoils of the trip. Plus we saw extra wildlife on the way including sharks, seals, octopus & dolphins. Extremely well priced tour. Total value for money. Highly recommended! Thanks guys we’ve just enjoyed our lobster dinner thanks to your expert instructions on how to prepare our catch.

The trip was excellent, very informative about the lobster industry. Great to see the set up and how they catch them, we kept 26 but threw lots away undersize as well. Boat is big and steady on the water. Seen dolphins and sharks around the boat. Lobster tasting was first class and taking 2 home is fantastic. Would recommend this tour to anyone. JC

Outstanding tour - highly recommended. Vaughan and Kate explained the life cycle of the lobster, the lobster fishing industry and demonstrated the pot setting and pulling up techniques. Kate provided some brilliant lobster snacks, freshly cooked, with their execellent home made chilli jam. Educational, entertaining and a whole lot of fun. We saw pods of dolphins, a ocuple of bronze whaler sharks and had a tour around the bay on a gorgeous day. We were even given some lobster to take home and cook! Very reasonably priced, so you can take the family. No-brainer - just do it.

This was an awesome experience. I was treated to hearing about and seeing how lobster fishing is carried out. Brothers Vaughn and Mark own and operate this tour and make it a lot of fun to watch and learn how they harvest lobsters. Being out on the water with the stunning coastline in the background was phenomenal. The icing on the cake was a great catch of lobsters to share and take home. I highly recommend this tour to anyone.
Thank you once again Vaughn and Mark for an entertaining morning 👏👏

It was a very informative tour but also light hearted very professional but explained well. The added benefit of seeing whales sharks and a seal was a bonus. Everyone was given a chance to ask questions at each stage of the tour. To have a chance to taste the lobster on the trip was another bonus and to bring one home each to eat made our friends green with envy 😍
