Queensland's Hervey Bay is renowned as the world's whale-watching capital, so see for yourself on this fun, three-hour whale watching cruise. You'll head out in the morning, looking out for migrating humpback whales splashing around near the boat and learning all about them from certified marine naturalists.

Jump on board the Ocean Defender - a state-of-the-art eco vessel - and enjoy a scenic and smooth ride out from the Fraser Coast. Your tour is led by certified marine naturalists who will share expert commentary about the whales and their behaviour as you watch them playing in their natural environment. Plus, you'll have the opportunity to listen to live whale songs through underwater hydrophones. Your ticket supports whale research, marine education and ocean conservation in Australia, and it's an unforgettable adventure you don't want to miss.
