Aquavue Hervey Bay

Well whale season officially started here in Hervey Bay yesterday and the whales are already out there waiting. Now that might sound a little strange but once you’ve been on a whale watching tour you begin to realise that while we might be watching the whales the whales are watching us too.

Not only do they put on quite a performance for us but they also come up close to the boats to look at what we’re doing so don’t be surprised if you go out on a whale watching tour and come back thinking that the whales have been waiting out there to do a little human watching themselves

Here at Aquavue Hervey Bay we also handle tour bookings for the whale watching cruises and we can book you onto any of the vessels that conduct whale watching cruises. This year the cruises we’re recommending are run by DescaradA Charters, Shayla, Whalesong, Quick Cat II and Tasman Venture.

This is the DescaradA and I can tell you that it is a beautiful vessel to cruise on. The whale watching tour that the DescaradA will take you on is a little different to all the others. While the other whale boats fit two trips into every day the DescaradA sails at 8.30am and returns at 3.30pm so you get to spend a lot more time out in the Bay enjoying the company of the whales.

As you can see, the DescaradA gets you up close to all the action and you’re guaranteed to have a great time.

The whale watching cruise on the DescaradA includes morning tea, lunch and non-alcoholic drinks and of course the whales.

If you’ve never been up close and personal to the whales before I can tell you that it’s an experience you will never forget.

You can book your whale watching cruise on the DescaradAÂ … or any of the other whale boats here in Hervey Bay through Aquavue’s tour booking service.

The whales are starting to arrive in Hervey Bay! The crew of the Whalesong spotted three young whales up at the north end of the Bay last Wednesday so the whale watching season in Hervey Bay is already off and running

Hervey Bay has the reputation of being the whale watching capital of Australia and a lot of tourists come to Hervey Bay during the whale watching season. That season normally runs from July through to early November when the whales begin to head back to Antarctica from their breeding grounds in the Coral Sea.

This year the whale watching season could come early because the whales are heading north much earlier than they usually do. Right now as I type this they’re passing up the east coast of Fraser Island.

If you haven’t been up close to a humpback whale then I have to tell you that you are missing out on one of life’s great experiences and it’s time you came up to Hervey Bay to meet the whales.

There are plenty of whale watching tours to choose from and the Quick Cat II seen here heading out on a tour is just one of them. You can book your whale watching tour with us and if you follow the link you’ll find more information. We’ll even tell which tours are the best for your particular circumstances.

So come up to Hervey Bay and say g’day to the biggest mammal on the planet.
