Spirit of Hervey Bay, whale watching in the whale watch capital of Australia

  Spirit of Hervey Bay
Whale Watching Hervey Bay

The Spirit of Hervey Bay is a 75 foot ocean going catamaran capable of getting you to the whales in double quick time ensuring the longest time possible is spent enjoying watching the whales. The vessel has full walk around upper and lower decks as well as the ever popular large foredeck where people may sit in complete safety and comfort in the whale watching area.

We also have a hydrophone so that you may listen live through the extensive new sound system to the whales singing in the waters of Hervey Bay.

A glass bottom viewing area has also been included in our new catamaran. If you feel that you want to get close to the whales this could be the trip for you. Our glass viewing areas would ensure that you may be able to view a whale only inches away in total security. This vessel is the first of its kind in the world that enables people to view the whales from such close range in the comfort of such a large boat.

 

Departing twice daily from the Great Sandy Straits Marina at the Urangan Boat Harbour, Hervey Bay, The Spirit of Hervey Bay is operated by one of the most experienced crews involved in whale watching .
Each crew member is actively interested in the Humpback whales and are delighted to answer any questions you may have. They are fully versed in the Department of Environment and Heritage 's protective guidelines for Humpback whale watching within the Marine Park of Platypus Bay and strictly adhere to all requirements.

A commentary is provided on board and literature is available for those people interested in further reading . Humpback whales are the most acrobatic of all whales and often perform spectacular displays of tail flapping, pectoral slapping, and breaching for the enthusiastic passengers.

In a more curious frame of mind The Humpback regularly swim within touching distance of the vessel much to the delight of all keen photographers and watchers participating in the cruise.
