On this page are links to Whale Watching operators participating in the Oz Magic network. Our operators are in Hervey Bay all year round and between them have presented you with around 100 photos on their pages to show just how close they will get you to our Humpback Whales.
Don't let anyone tell you there is a better place to see the Humpbacks in AustraliaOur whales here in the waters of Fraser Island are at rest and play as they take a break from their annual migration. They bring their newborn calves here to rest and strengthen for the long journey they have to finish. Here the whales will come and look at you as the baby whales see their first humans. Everywhere else they are on the move, here they take time to come and check you out, just look at the pictures and you will see.
Discounts may apply to clients booking more than one region with Oz Magic. (conditions apply).
