What you can expect

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. Plus, there is the unique opportunity to swim with the whales, creating an unforgettable encounter before the crowds arrive.

Whale swimming is offered on all tours for guests who want an immersive experience. Swimming with whales is strictly on their terms and follows our licence 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.

Tour Highlights:

Fastest vessel in Hervey Bay, be first with the whales
Small group experience, space and personal touch, maximum 14 guests
Up-close encounters with humpback whales
Opportunities to swim with whales
Complimentary mask and snorkel hire - wetsuits available to hire for $10pp
Expert guides sharing insider knowledge
Premium vessel with unobstructed views, under cover
