The world's first Whale Heritage Site has been designated in the region around Hervey Bay - and it's easy to see why. This is where the migrating humpback whales stop and relax en masse, creating awe-inspiring whale-watching opportunities.
You'll be able to assist the crew by watching out for the first flash or splash of the pods of playing whales, signalling the start of your unforgettable experience.
And it only gets better as the whales get closer - Hervey Bay is the best place to get up close and personal with these magnificent animals. Get ready for some mugging - when the whales approach so closely that you'll be able to see them checking you out.
A 40-tonne humpback whale just metres away is an experience you won't forget and you will see whales as it's guaranteed between 23rd July and 7th October each year.
