Experience the Marvels of Whale Viewing in Hervey Bay
Hervey Bay is distinct from other whale-watching hotspots because of its unique location and waters surrounding the area, protected by Fraser Island (K'gari), offer a place for humpback whales as they move. Annually, from July to November, the bay receives an enormous arrival of these extraordinary animals as they make a rest stop throughout their remarkable trip along Australia's eastern seaboard.What makes Hervey Bay absolutely distinct is its role as a stop for these whales. Unlike other locations where humpbacks are observed on the move, in Hervey Bay, they stop briefly to relax, play, and nurture their young. These resting habits mean that site visitors frequently witness intimate events, from moms teaching young how to breach to lively displays of tail slapping and fin whirling.
