Whale Watching Hervey Bay - Hervey Bay Whale Watching Season 2018
The Hervey Bay whale watching season 2018 is fantastic! If you’re looking for a whale watching experience that you’ll talk about for the rest of your life go whale watching Hervey Bay.
Read about it here
Each year between April and November, thousands of humpback whales migrate from Antarctica up along the east coast of Australia to the warmer waters off the Queensland coast where they mate and give birth.
During their annual migration of up to 10 000 kilometres, humpback whales attract thousands of visitors to coastal towns along Australia’s east coast. But the best place to see them is Hervey Bay, where they stop to rest and play before returning to Antarctica.
Whale watching in Hervey Bay offers a level of interaction that you may not experience anywhere else. This is because the humpback whales have chosen Hervey Bay as their location to stop and relax during their migration. In many other places, the humpback whales are on a mission to get to their destination and may not be interested in interacting with people.
There are several Hervey Bay whale watching tours to choose from but no matter which boat you choose, if you visit Hervey Bay at the right time of year you’re pretty much guaranteed of having a close up experience with the whales.
The best months to see whales in large numbers are August and September.
Well over 1000 humpback whales arrive in the waters between Hervey Bay and Fraser Island in late August and early September. They hang around these waters, resting and playing for anywhere between 5 and 10 days before continuing their journey to Antarctica.

Jill & Brians Whale Of An Adventure - Hervey Bay
This is Jill & Brians story of how they began Whale Watching in Hervey Bay.
Jill and Brian have owned their own catamaran since 1987, currently operating Quick Cat II. Based in Hervey Bay, (Queensland, Australia) they are equipped to take members of the public out on trips to see the whales as they migrate and pass through the bay.
This short documentary explores how Jill and Brian started the Whale Watching and how themselves and their crew make each trip special so people go away and tell all their friends about their experience, whilst spreading the word about the whales.
These Whales are Humpback Whales that visit Fraser Coasts, Hervey Bay.
All the footage was captured during the whale watching season in 2013 over the course of 3 different days.
