Hervey Bay: A Sanctuary for Whale Viewing and Sea Life

Hervey Bay stands out from various other whale-watching hotspots as a result of its special geography and waters bordering the area, protected by Fraser Island (K'gari), supply a sanctuary for humpback whales as they journey. Every year, from July to November, the bay welcomes a large influx of these unbelievable creatures as they make a rest stop during their remarkable trip along Australia's eastern seaboard.

Hervey Bay stands out for being a relaxing place for humpback whales, unlike various other regions where they are normally seen in motion. In Hervey Bay, the whales pause to unwind, connect and take care of their young. This enables tourists to observe special moments, such as mom whales directing their young on breaching methods and engaging in spirited habits like tail slapping and fin twirling.
