The sand island of K’gari (Fraser Island) is like nowhere else in Australia. On this two-day, guided tour, you can explore its best bits without the need to hurry, all while benefitting from pre-planned logistics. Follow your guide on rainforest walks, discover natural swimming spots, and see landmarks like the Champagne Pools and the Maheno shipwreck. Stay overnight at K'gari Beach Resort on Seventy-Five Mile Beach, with breakfast and two lunches included.

Enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking on UNESCO-listed K’gari on this full-day trip from Hervey Bay. Spot dolphins, swim with turtles, then discover the island’s wild side on a bush walk. After the included buffet lunch, spend the rest of the afternoon kayaking or snorkeling the island’s beaches and bays. Even look out for migrating humpback whales between mid-July and October.

Explore the waters of Hervey Bay in search of whales on this guided whale-watching expedition. Board a rigid inflatable boat, then head out to the watery paths where humpback whales migrate and birth their calves. Enjoy water-level views of whales, listen to commentary and interpretations from a marine naturalist guide, and listen to whale communications on an underwater hydrophone.

An adventure-packed tour that promises excitement at every turn! Step aboard Wipeout, the fastest vessel in Hervey Bay, for a premium small-group adventure where you get to be first on the water with the whales. By limiting our tours to small groups, we provide space, comfort, and an intimate, personalised experience that larger tours can’t match. Feel the thrill as our expert guides navigate the calm waters of the Great Sandy Straits to bring you up close to majestic humpback whales. On the morning tour, there is the unique opportunity to swim with the whales, creating an unforgettable encounter before the crowds arrive. Whale swimming is offered on all our morning tours for guests who want an immersive experience. Swimming with whales is strictly on their terms and follows our license guidelines, and is not guaranteed on any tours. The best whale swimming opportunities are from mid-July to August, as from September onwards, more mothers and calves enter the Bay.

Many whale-watching tours only allow you to see the majestic creatures from a distance, but on this Fraser Island tour you’ll get the chance to swim with them. Visit the more remote parts of the island that many visitors skip, and have fun bushwalking, snorkeling, kayaking, and swimming. On board the boat, look out for humpback whales and, if the conditions are right, take a dip in the sea beside them.
