From Whale Watching Tour - Half Day Cruise - Hervey Bay
Hi Edgard, Thanks for the great review. Marion and Matt do such a terrific job! We're proud to have them as part of the Whalesong team this year! I'll pass on this positive comment to them both. Thanks again for choosing Whalesong! Warm Regards, Rebecca

Share LinkGreat cruise
Our 3rd whale watching cruise in Hervey Bay, 1st time in Whale Song. Crew couldn’t have been nicer with very friendly service who actually walked around serving food rather than having to line up like other cruises, allowing us to continue to watch whales. Will be back for sure!

Share LinkWhale Watching a Must-Do in Hervey Bay
I had been whale watching many years ago and whilst road tripping checked out Book Me for deals to take my husband and son out onto the bay. Hervey Bay is a fantastic place to see the whales. There were plenty of whales with calves by their side - this just made it all extra special. We went in the afternoon and the water was a little choppy, which seemed to make the whales more active. Breach after breach - it was spectacular. The Whalesong Cruises team were great and really looked after us bringing out lunch directly to us, so that we could keep watching on. The best thing about the afternoon cruise was that we captured the sun setting as we headed back to the marina. My husband had never been whale watching and thought it was a not to be missed experience.
