Overview

This eight-hour whale watching day trip departs from Hervey Bay aboard a sailing catamaran that carries up to 24 guests. The boat sails to Platypus Bay near K'gari (Fraser Island), where passengers can encounter humpback whales in their natural environment. The small group size allows for personal conversations with a professional guide who provides live commentary throughout the trip. An underwater viewing platform on the catamaran lets guests observe humpback whales beneath the surface while listening to the male whale's song through a hydrophone. The tour includes morning and afternoon tea, as well as a buffet lunch with beverages. Hotel pickup and drop-off in Hervey Bay are included. Alcoholic drinks are not included but can be purchased on board. National park fees are covered. Children must be accompanied by an adult, and vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free meal options are available if requested at booking. The tour may be canceled due to weather or minimum passenger requirements.
