The experience

Venture out to sea in search of Queensland's wonderful whales

A whale watching cruise out in Hervey Bay is an extraordinary, mesmerizing, and absolutely krill-iant way to spend time in the great outdoors.

Your multi-level vessel boasts a hydrophone so you can listen to the whales beneath – mimicking their song is encouraged. Two meals are included; adventuring is hungry work!
