Join K'Gari Salty Safaris for an unforgettable whale watching adventure in Hervey Bay and K'gari (Fraser Island). This adventure allows you to cruise the western coast and waterways between K'gari (Fraser Island) and Hervey Bay, even if you're short on time.

After checking in, hop on board and receive a run-down of the day and a safety briefing. Once we leave the harbour, we'll enjoy music, showcase the boat's water-acrobatics, and go with the flow of the tides. Our experienced skippers tailor the itinerary based on the weather and passengers' interests for the best possible experience.

Onboard the 'Wipe Out' you'll be immersed in a thrilling exploration surrounded by breathtaking beauty above and below the surface. Witness the wonders of nature at Queensland's renowned Whale Heritage Site and cruise on the pristine waters of K'Gari's Western side, including Platypus Bay, where humpback whales seek refuge from July to October.Equipped with a sun protection roof, this vessel brings you closest to the waterline in the Bay, providing the ideal platform for an up close and personal encounter with these magnificent creatures.

When not cruising or exploring various hotspots, you'll have plenty of opportunities to swim, snorkel, sunbathe, or play sports like beach cricket, frisbee, or footy. You can also join a guided walk to learn more about the area.

Tolle whale watching tour

Es war ein rundum toller Nachmittag. Wir haben viele Wale gesehen, ihnen in Ruhe zuschauen können, das Salty Safaris Team war nett und hat auch viel erklärt, die Verpflegung war lecker und die Extra- schnellen Runden waren lustig!!! Kurz und gut: ein wunderschönes Erlebnis!!! Danke schön!
