Whale Watching
Whales come heart-stoppingly close to Narooma, brought in on warm, krill-rich currents as the continental shelf dips closer to shore than anywhere else along the east coast of Australia. Narooma has a sighting success rate of 98% during peak season from September to November (they’re also seen heading north in June/July) and pods of up to ten aren’t uncommon around Montague Island.
The Dalmeny Headland (200 metres) is a great vantage point for whale watching however if you are keen to get up close and personal some great Whale Watching Tours are available.
