From late July to early November the calm waters of Hervey Bay and Fraser Island become a sanctuary for the beautiful and most magnificent Humpback Whales. Every year the whales return to Hervey Bay; one of the world's most exclusive whale watching destinations. Never before will you experience such a close encounter with these spectacular mammals!
Join Hervey Bay's only multi-award winning whale watching sail vessel and one of the smallest in the fleet. Most of the whales you'll see are 10 to 13 metres in length and 30 tonnes or more, that's over 5 times the boats weight! So when you see a whale from Blue Dolphin you really see a whale!
Your skipper, Peter, has nearly 30 years' experience with marine mammals, 14 years of which were spent as a Sea World trainer. During those years Peter was involved with saving many stranded marine mammals. A day aboard Blue Dolphin will be highly informative thanks to Peter's wealth of experience and knowledge. He welcomes all your questions so be sure to ask!

Whale watching tour
The best whale watching tour. Up close and personal with the whales in a small group. Excellent crew, boat and food. I would do it again.
