Witnessing the Humpback Whale Migration:

Breathe & Breach: A Weekend With Whales

Tweed Coast: 10th - 13th July 2026

from $1750 AUD per person

Escape to the stunning Tweed Coast in Northern NSW for a weekend of whales, wellness, and deep connection with the ocean. Timed perfectly with peak humpback migration, this getaway offers an unforgettable chance to swim alongside these gentle giants.

In a small group of up to 8 guests, spend two half-days on the water, searching for curious humpback whales and experiencing the magic of sharing the water with them in their natural habitat. We will also have the chance to dive at Cook Island - one of New South Wales’ most abundant dive sites and home to dozens of turtles.

When we’re not in the ocean, we’ll unwind in our luxury coastal house, immersing ourselves in restorative sound healing, breathwork & lung stretching sessions designed to enhance mindfulness and relaxation.

Why Choose Eunoia?

There are a few whale trips out there — but none quite like this. Here’s what sets us apart:

We choose prime accommodation on the stunning Tweed Coast that reflects our relaxed, nature-first ethos - think tranquil beach houses or hinterland hideaways. No crowds. No screaming kids. Just peace, comfort, and ocean energy.
