What to expect
Step onto your specially designed whale-watching catamaran and set sail from Hervey Bay.
Listen to an expert's commentary as you head out to sea and scan the water for whales. See whales in their natural environment from a choice of two vantage points. Watch from inside the boat through the underwater viewing windows, or head to the boat's unique outdoor platform for unforgettable views.
Your air-conditioned catamaran is equipped with hydrophones so you can hear the whales sing, and the multilingual staff can provide whale information in six languages.
Smaller kids keep busy with toys and activities provided on board, and you can take home a free whale-watching DVD.
Enjoy tea and coffee with biscuits and cake on the trip out, and an antipasto platter to share on the return trip home. You can also buy drinks from the licensed bar (own expense).

Fantastic trip!! The boat, although smaller than others, was the best feature. Being smaller, it meant we could walk.(& often run!) From one side of the boat to the other to get the best view if the whales from wherever they were, and the captain could quickly manoeuvre the boat to get closer too. Staff were super friendly, especially to our kids and also passionate and knowledgeable. Morning tea was plentiful, and afternoon tea too. The Junior Whale Warrior is worth getting too.It was a terrific experience. The staff were very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. Recommend it to all that have the opportunity.

Only a short trip out, within the bay, gave us close first hand views to many different pods. Calves, breaches, flicks of tails - the afternoon had it all, including afternoon tea with a variety of goodies! Wish I could upload the videos to Trip Advisor! TIP - take a jacket, irrespective of the weather and sunshine, as it can get cool on the water. Also, morning would most likely have calmer waters, but the action in the afternoon was worth it!The amount of whales we seen and the guides being so on the ball as soon as they seen activity in the distance
