We went on the Aqua Oasis cruise for our work christmas party. We had so much fun, the weather was perfect and the crew couldn't be more helpful. Highly recommend, it was the best day out on the water I've ever had.

Have completed my tenth season on board Hervey Bay whale watch. The 2025 season has been amazing from commencement in July to last day 19th October. I am a regular whale watcher throughout the season and as usual was not disappointed. A big thank you to skippers Josh, Sam. Steve as usual you have excelled in showcasing our humpbacks and I still learn something new on my trips. The crew Nat, Jack, James, Hayley, Darren, Peta ,Kellie always nearby on deck to lend a hand and provide great morning and afternoon teas. Lindy, Alicia, Tahnee in the office providing support to guests with their booking requirements. The "QuickCat" is purpose built for whale watching, plenty of room around the decks to move around with different levels to get the best views whether you wish to be high or lower. Have witnessed some amazing interactions this season and share some of my photos . I can highly recommend Hervey Bay whale watch it was the first cruise company we booked with whilst on holiday, now living in Hervey Bay it is the vessel of choice

I wondered how successful we would be later in the season, but I needn't have worried. As I overheard "We run out of customers before we run out of whales", this was borne out on this excellent half day trip. We went in the afternoon and saw at least 4 mothers and calves and even had the excitement of a mother breaching about 15-20 metres from the boat looking for her calf. The crew are excellent at spotting the signs from km's away and heading towards possible sightings and also at explaining what we are seeing, from the captain at the wheel, to other members of crew around the decks. Afternoon tea was supplied and was good. A highly recommended half day trip, with an excellent chance of whale spotting.

We had done whale watch from Hervey Bay before and had a great experience. We had hoped that being a bit earlier in September would have helped. However this time proved to be not so much. We loved the crew and the fact that it was a family run business. No complaints there at all however, the haul across to K'Gari before getting to the whales is a bit of a drag to be honest then the repeat on return. Also, the spotting experience was a complete let down compared to last time, and again more time spottine less time cruising might have helped.

What a great experience. Very informative tour with running commentary about whales and their behaviour. Mum has limited mobility and the crew went above and beyond to help her throughout the day - helping with onboarding, ensuring she was seeing plenty of the action and bringing her afternoon tea. These things make a huge difference to the day. Thank you so much for an awesome day - would highly recommend.

What a ripper day, a bit windy on our way out, but once out there and seeeing the whales you soon forget everything and are just fascinated watching the whales with their calves. The skipper and crew where fantastic and made it a fantastic afternoon and very memorable.

Our whale watching cruise was absolutely fantastic! Check in process was easy, boarding was smooth. The boat was quite full, but not too much. We sat on the upper deck which provided us with wonderful view of the sea. The weather was really nice and sunny, and the best part was that we sighted maybe 15 whales - both near and far. A couple of them even went by our boat, dived under our boat, and came up on the other side of our boat! The kids love it, crews were friendly, and the afternoon tea was decent. No complaints!

What an amazing cruise this was! We all had a great time! This was our first time seeing whales and it didnt disappoint. The crew were informative and showed us what to look for. Then we spent so long with the beautiful whales also seeing sea turtles and a dolphin. I definitely recommend this cruise to anyone looking to do whale watching.
