Why Hervey Bay is Special for Whale Encounters
Hervey Bay stands apart from other whale-watching locations due to its one-of-a-kind location and waters surrounding the area, sheltered by Fraser Island (K'gari), give a place for humpback whales as they move. Yearly, from July to November, the bay accepts a massive arrival of these unbelievable creatures as they make a pit stop during their impressive trip along Australia's eastern seaboard.What makes Hervey Bay really unique is its role as a stop for these whales. Unlike other areas where humpbacks are observed on the move, in Hervey Bay, they stop to relax, play, and nurture their young. These resting actions guarantee that site visitors frequently witness intimate moments, from parents showing calves how to breach to spirited displays of tail slapping and fin swaying.
