The whales are on their way to the Fraser Coast and you should be too! When it comes to awe-inspiring moments with humpbacks, the best advice we can give is - don't just take our word for it.

As you can see for yourself that there is no place like Hervey Bay for up close and personal interaction with the Humpback whales.

From the months of July - November you can come face to face with the whales while on board one of the many whale watching vessels.

Lady Elliot Island, situated off the northern tip of Fraser Island, is the most southern coral cay that lies within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Reserve. It is a significant bird breeding ground as well as being home to an array of wildlife, including whales, turtles, manta rays and various tropical fish. The lagoon is the perfect place for a spot of reef walking and fish feeding, while the islands surrounding reef right off the beach offers amazing visibility year round and is a snorkelers dream.
