Hervey Bay: A Haven for Whale Viewing and Sea Life

Hervey Bay is distinct from other whale-watching hotspots because of its unique location and waters surrounding the location, sheltered by Fraser Island (K'gari), provide a sanctuary for humpback whales as they move. Each year, from July to November, the bay embraces a massive arrival of these incredible wild animals as they make a pit stop throughout their amazing trip along Australia's eastern seaboard.

What makes Hervey Bay truly special is its function as a stop for these whales. Unlike various other areas where humpbacks are observed on the move, in Hervey Bay, they stop to rest, play, and support their young. These resting actions mean that site visitors typically witness intimate moments, from parents instructing young how to breach to spirited displays of tail slapping and fin twirling.
