Hervey Bay: A Sanctuary for Whale Watching and Oceanic Life

Hervey Bay stands apart from other whale-watching locations due to its unique location and waters surrounding the location, sheltered by Fraser Island (K'gari), provide a sanctuary for humpback whales as they migrate. Each year, from July to November, the bay embraces a massive arrival of these amazing animals as they make a rest stop during their exceptional journey along Australia's eastern coast.

What makes Hervey Bay genuinely unique is its duty as a stopover 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 frequently witness intimate events, from mothers educating calves just how to breach to lively shows of tail slapping and fin swaying.
