Very pleasent day. Dominic was great with lots of interesting information of the local area. Would highly recommend for a nice day out.

Outstanding experience! Finally got to do this and it was brilliant. Really great boat, Glenn was fabulous - so many dolphins - almost jumping in the boat and the stunning coastline and history. Capped off by whales straggling at end of season including full breaches and tail slaps. Exceptional.

It was a excellent morning. Dom went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time and got to see some whales! Communication was great when we had to reschedule due to weather. Would definitely recommend.

Great trip! Tracey worked hard to manoeuvre our boat, to maximise our whale viewing. She was helpful, informative and an excellent guide. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip, and can highly recommend it.

The boat was super fast, which came in handy when whales were seen breaching in the distance. When we got closer we got to see two whales breaching at the same time. We saw more whales that day than I ever saw over my lifetime. It was a wonderful experience and Tracey was an excellent guide. I was hesitant with the price but shortly after our journey started I realised it was much better value than any other whale watch trips I’ve been on. Only 12 passengers and cold easily see the whales as we were so close to the water…yet we didn’t get sprayed with water while on the move. They even supplied jackets to anyone who wanted one. I can’t wait to go again.

This was the perfect vessel for getting us around many parts of Lake Macquarie - a very enjoyable smooth ride. We learnt a bit of history, fishing information, the geology of the area and Dom was able to answer all of the questions we had about the lake. The bush walk was a lovely time spent gaining another perspective and to see some very different varieties of gums growing around this area. To finish off we had an amazing picnic on the edge of the lake. Giving us time to completely relax. We enjoyed the whole experience, very relaxed, never felt rushed and Dom is such an easy going, knowledgeable, happy character.

The trip was good, we had lovely guides & saw some dolphins the way there & back. I think it was a little too long, could've been sufficient with 2 hours however, enjoyed it regardless as it was a lovely morning! Take some snacks with you seeing it is 3 hours but not too much as you don't get off the boat. Also extra warm clothes if you do a crisp morning tour.

11/10 experience with CoastXP! I took a group of young people, Dom and Troy looked after us spectacularly. The boat was comfortable, fast, clean, and had unobstructed views. Dom and Troy shared local knowledge and a history of the area, including great fun facts. They took us for a bush walk in Wangi and were flexible to support the needs of our group perfectly. Would definitely use this organisation again and highly recommend!

Fabulous trip from Newcastle Harbour out to the open sea travelling along the coastline & back, Tracey was a great guide , we saw a huge seal & many dolphins. There was a lot of history to learn as well.

Spending time for two and a half hours on the Hunter Coastal Adventure Tour by boat is one of my best decisions for the Newcastle tour. Everything was perfect and the journey was memorable.

Do yourself a favour and check out our amazing coastline from Nobby’s to Catho (that’s what surfers call it - Catherine Hill Bay) and back. You can observe the war time tunnels between King Edward Park and Bar Beach, Burwood beach rail coal history, caves at Pinnies and the Catherine Hill Bay wharf. Back in the 70’s some surfers jumped off the wharf to surf the reefs around CHB, Our teenage grandkids enjoyed the experience as part of their Xmas present. I plan on doing the whale watching experience in 2024.

The day was beautiful! We felt in very capable hands with Dom and recommend this delightful experience most highly!

The CoastXP team are fantastic! They did everything to ensure my Mum and I had the most fantastic day. Dom and Troy were knowledgeable of the local area and friendly. The boat is comfortable and incredibly clean. A great experience. I would recommend it as a great day out to others.

Great little trip. Got to see the coast from the sea our tour guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, with even got to see dolphins close up.

Interesting, informative and vey enjoyable. Our Lake tour today with CoastXP gave us a great new perspective of our Lake - from the middle looking out, rather than the edges looking in. Lunch was yummy! The crew - Dom and Jane - were friendly and professional, especially with regard to safety. The boat was in excellent order - exceedingly well maintained and presented. We had a great time and definitely intend to take more tours with CoastXP.
