Daytrippers and holiday makers flock to Hervey Bay every Whale season, which starts late July and goes through to early November.
Every year these huge whales migrate from the freezing waters of the Antarctic to the sub tropical coastal waters of western and eastern Australia. They come to the warmer waters to give birth and mate, when they migrate back they head South, and find Hervey Bay an ideal place to stop and rest for a while. Therefore, not only can you view the adult whales here but you can delight in their young frolicking in the crystal clear waters. There is no shortage of whale watching boat tours here to view the whale families.
