The best time to whale watch in Hervey Bay is from early August to late September when the whales can be seen with their calves and are at their most playful and plentiful.
Fraser Island
Fraser Island stretches over 123 kilometres in length and 22 kilometres at its widest point. With an area of 184 000 hectares, it is the largest sand island in the world.
Fraser Island is a place of exceptional beauty, with its long uninterrupted white beaches flanked by strikingly coloured sand cliffs, and over 100 freshwater lakes, some tea-coloured and others clear and blue all ringed by white sandy beaches. Ancient rainforests grow in sand along the banks of fast-flowing, crystal-clear creeks.
Fraser Island is the only place in the world where tall rainforests are found growing on sand dunes at elevations of over 200 metres. The low “wallum” heaths on the island are of particular evolutionary and ecological significance and provide magnificent wildflower displays in spring and summer.
The immense sand blows and cliffs of coloured sands are part of the longest and most complete age sequence of coastal dune systems in the world and they are still evolving. They are a continuous record of climatic and sea-level changes over the last 700 000 years. The highest dunes on the island reach up to 240 metres above sea level.
Hervey Bay
The allure of year-round water activities, untouched swimming beaches and seriously fresh seafood are all part of Hervey Bay’s unique charm. Combine all this with the picturesque Urangan Pier, the easygoing nature of its locals, and the town’s proximity to the UNESCO-listed Fraser Island it’s easy to understand why tourists flock to Hervey Bay and keep coming back.
