Whale Watching...
From August to November the Humpback whales come and frolic in the calm waters of Hervey Bay. Returning south from giving birth in and around the Whitsundays they take a short holiday before returning to the colder southern oceans for the summer.

Whalewatching was born in Hervey Bay about 15 years ago when one of the local fishing boats abandoned the fishing industry for a season to take curious locals and tourists to watch these wonderful creatures at play. Now a fleet of tour boats based at the Hervey Bay Marina run tours for this annual event. Whalewatching entices people from around the world to see these great, friendly mammals and their young.

It is an amazingly emotional and rewarding experience. Eye contact with a mammoth whale has sent big men to raptures, women to tears, and youngsters have even sung along with the whalesong! This is an unforgettable, lifetime experience not to be missed.
