6Hr Freedom Hervey Bay Premium Whale Watch Tour

Hervey Bay is recognised as the first accredited Whale Heritage Site by the World Cetacean Alliance. Platypus Bay in the Great Sandy Marine Park is a popular sanctuary for the Humpback Whales as they migrate south to the Antarctic  waters. This Freedom Whale Watching Tour from Hervey Bay is your ultimate ticket to see these Humpback Whales up close as they display their acrobatic prowess.

Freedom III is a 58ft, purpose-built catamaran, with 360°viewing on all three levels and a water-level viewing area to get as close to the gentle giants as possible. From the marina, you'll cruise to Platypus Bay, a prime whale watching spot near K’gari (Fraser Island). 

En route to see the whales play, enjoy tea/coffee, hot chocolates and home baked treats. This eco-friendly tour also encourages you to bring your own reusable coffee cups. There’s a water-filling station on board with fresh filtered water available all day. 

Once you’ve entered the bay, gear up for a jaw-dropping display showcasing the mighty prowess of the Humpback Whales, which may include breaches, spy hops, tail slaps, and more!

The Skipper will regale you with fascinating insights into whale behaviour and about the Great Sandy Marine Park. A tropical buffet lunch is also offered on board, which you can enjoy in the dining area or on the decks, amidst the serenity of the surrounding region.

On your way back to the Marina, enjoy a warm afternoon tea which includes cheese and fruit platters. Take this moment to relax and relive the wonderful memories you just made.
