Description
See humpback whales, dolphins, turtles, dugongs, and sea birds on a purpose-built catamaran with this tour from Hervey Bay. Enjoy lunch or dinner on board along with coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
Hervey Bay was declared the World's First Whale Heritage site and is still the only such site in Australasia; it has a reputation as one the best places in the world in which to observe Humpback whales.
Enjoy close encounters with a 100% guarantee of seeing these majestic beauties. They are in their natural habitat and we get to have an enthralling half–day with them. Depart from your hotel or accommodation in Hervey Bay and travel to the marina to begin your aquatic adventure.
Travel across the beautiful blue, clear water of Hervey Bay and take in the stunning views. Spot humpback and other majestic species of whales as they frolic in the water. Look out also for birds, turtles, dugongs and 3 different species of dolphin.
While you watch whales and a whole host of wonderful sea creatures, the friendly crew will serve morning tea and lunch (on Extended Morning cruise) or afternoon tea and dinner (on Afternoon and Sunset cruise).
When conditions permit, we can listen to the whales 'sing' with our hydrophone.
Whalesong is wheelchair accessible and our caring and empathetic team will ensure everyone on board is taken care of, no matter their ability.
