The Top Things to do in Hervey Bay

Hervey Bay might be small in stature but it’s big on traveller experiences with the world heritage Fraser Island on its doorstep and migrating Humpback Whales on its shoreline each year. As the unofficial “Whale Watching Capital” of Australia, you can enjoy a personal encounter with these magnificent creatures on whale watching cruises from July to November as they birth and play in the sheltered waters surrounding Hervey Bay. When the whales aren’t about you can spend a day frolicking in freshwater streams and walking in the wilderness on Fraser Island. Find all the top things to do in Hervey Bay here including water sports activities, 4X4 island tours, fishing trips, and scenic flights to the Great Barrier Reef.
