The only whale watching vessel in the world that offers you the chance to view the Humpback whale closer than you ever thought possible.

The "Spirit of Hervey Bay" is a specifically built for whale watching featuring two underwater viewing rooms located in the hulls of the vessel, each with four viewing windows. These windows allow you to get below the waterline and enjoy the whales in their natural environment.
