Why Mills Charters?

Perth's No.1 Whale Watching Cruises

Mills Charters Whale Watching Cruises are world renowned as listed in the Lonely Planet Guide.

We offer a 3-4 hour guaranteed trip giving you ample time to enjoy the show the whales put on!

If we don't see whales, you get another trip FREE!

Large 75ft vessel with huge open deck area, spacious bow area and overhead sun and rain cover, allowing passengers the best possible viewing platform.

You will practically be at water level to see the whales in action as they appear very close to the vessel!

You will hear the whales too as they communicate with each other right before your eyes.

Dedicated team of experienced Crew, with fact sheets and informative DVD to view throughout the charter.


Our success rate is in excess of 98% sightings overall, and in 2009 we managed  a 100% success rate. 

We are located only 20 minutes from Perth City (closer than Fremantle).

On-board male and female toilets.

Bring something warm to wear.

Boats depart from Hillarys Boat Harbour at the jetty in front of the Aquarium of Western Australia - AQWA. Office and meeting point located next to the departure jetty.

Join us for a Whale Watching Eco-Adventure aboard one of the Mills Charters luxury 70ft cruisers.

There are generally three types of baleen whales seen off the coast of Western Australia.

  • The Humpback Whale (so named because it arches its back as it prepares to dive so creating the shape of a hump)
  • The Southern Right Whale (so named because in the old days of whaling, whalers considered this whale the right one to hunt as it swam very slowly and was therefore easy to catch and because its body was so rich in oil, it floated on the surface after it had been killed)
  • The Blue Whale which is coloured a steely grey on the surface but when seen from below is a beautiful turquoise blue. It is the largest of the Whales, reaching up to 100 feet in length and 130 tonnes in weight.
    The blue whale is the loudest animal on Earth! This endangered mammal is also the largest animal that ever lived on Earth; it is larger than any of the giant dinosaurs were.

 


Departures Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, & Sundays at 9:00 am during the season, and some afternoons from 1:15pm where required. Because it is a migration (north to south), the season can only start and continue while the whales are here (usually mid-September thru early December - it all depends on the whales!).
