Has the Whale Season in Hervey Bay Got Off to an Early Start?
While most tourism operators in Hervey Bay would like to see the start of the whale watching season let’s face some facts … the spotting of two whales off Kingfisher Bay does not mean that the whale watching season has come early.
Whales seldom come this far down into the bay and when they do it’s more likely to be much later in the season. Add to that the fact that it’s not unknown for whales to come across the bar at the southern end of the Fraser Island and swim up the bay on their northward migration. So let’s not get too excited just yet, the whales will come to Hervey Bay as they do every year … in their own good time.
Let’s just hope that the tourists come too … there’s certainly plenty great things to see and do in Hervey Bay even without the whales.
