Why Hervey Bay is Special for Whale Watching And Encounters

Hervey Bay stands apart from other whale-watching locations due to its special geography and waters bordering the location, sheltered by Fraser Island (K'gari), offer a haven for humpback whales as they journey. Yearly, from July to November, the bay receives 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 relax, engage and care for their young. This allows viewers to observe special occasions, such as mother whales assisting their calves on breaching strategies and engaging in lively behaviors like tail slapping and fin shaking.
