About Noosa Thriller
Noosa Thriller is a family-owned ocean adventure operator that has been running whale watching, dolphin cruises, and high-speed ocean thrill rides from Noosaville since 1978. Operating from 194 Gympie Terrace on the Noosa River, they take small groups out into Laguna Bay and along the Noosa National Park coastline aboard their purpose-built vessel, Thriller.
Their flagship experience is the whale watching tour, running daily from June to October during the humpback migration season. With a maximum of just 12 passengers per trip, guests get an intimate encounter with breaching whales, guided by one of the most experienced whale watch skippers on the Sunshine Coast. They also offer year-round dolphin spotting cruises, ocean adventure thrill rides, and sunset tours along the coastline.
What sets Noosa Thriller apart is the personalised, small-group format — every seat is front row on the open-deck vessel, offering unobstructed 360-degree views. With over four decades on the water, the crew knows exactly where to find the wildlife, and their 100% whale sighting guarantee during season gives visitors confidence they will not leave disappointed.
