Settle back and relax as the M.V. MIKAT takes you from the Great Sandy Straits Marina to Moon Point on Fraser Island, where you will enter the Hervey Bay Marine Park to enjoy your time amongst the Humpback Whales.
You're onboard a 20 metre ocean-going catamaran that will handle the generally calm waters of Hervey Bay with ease. After a cup of coffee or tea we will give you an informative talk about the whales and dolphins, not just textbook facts but very much our own experiences since 1987, the beginning of whale watching. Educational, entertaining and for some even emotional. The sight of the first Humpback Whale for the day is an unforgettable experience. To see an animal weighing some 45,000kg or an equivalent weight of 11 elephants is breathtaking.
But that's merely the beginning of your WHALE WATCH SAFARI. Remember, you are onboard the M.V. MIKAT, which has more time to spend amongst the whales. There are more whales to see and more behaviour patterns to enjoy. Breaching, spy-hopping, talk and pec-slapping and the very popular socialising, when some whales become inquisitive about us as we are about these gentle giants from Antarctica. To see the ever playful dolphins riding the bow-wave or interactingwith the whales is an added bonus.
All the time your helpful crew will try to explain what these whales are doing and why, and to get your camera ready when a breach is imminent. |

Seldom in a lifetime is anyone offered an opportunity to come face to face with the fifth largest animal that has ever lived on this planet - the might Humpback Whale. The most playful of all the large whales and the most acrobatic, as they can leap clear of the water - but also the most gentle, as they approach the vessel in a gesture of friendship and trust.
But whales don't perfom specially for whale watch vessels. A successful tour requires experience, skill, time and lots of patience. Don't be disappointed and arrive too late or leave too early, give yourself plenty of time.
