Cape Solander

If you're looking for the ultimate whale watching experience in Sydney, look no further than Cape Solander!

Our newly constructed platform provides improved accessibility and safety, with larger viewing areas and better pedestrian access. Plus, our interpretation and information about whales in Sydney waters make it the perfect spot for whale watching. June and July are the best times to spot humpback whales migrating north, but they can also be seen between May and October. You may even be lucky enough to have them swim as close as 200m from the coast! Cape Solander is also great for birdwatching and simply enjoying the clear horizon. Plus, you can learn more about the significance of whales in local Aboriginal culture by watching the interview with Wallangang Elder, Glen Timbery. Take a virtual tour of Cape Solander with Google Street View Trekker, and look up visitor info for directions, safety, and practical information.
