Welcome to the Parkhaven motor Lodge Nowra
Dolphin Watch Cruises: Whale Watching and Dolphin Watching on Jervis Bay. The southern whale migration provides some of the best whale watching along the east coast of Australia, as mothers and calves head home on their long journey south from the tropical "breeding" waters of coastal Queensland. The mothers and calves often need to rest along the journey, and Jervis Bay has proven to be a favourite "rest stop". This provides the guests of Dolphin Watch Cruises with some of the most spectacular whale watching: the catamaran's engine is switched off, and visitors watch as the whales swim up to the boat to investigate what all the fuss is about. You sometimes wonder who is watching whom...?


Dolphin Explorer Cruises: Whale Watching on Jervis Bay. Over 13 years of whale watching experience and local knowledge ensures that your encounter with these playful creatures will be an experience to remember. Witness the annual migration of the majestic Humpback Whales along the East Coast, occurring from June to mid November.
