Let’s have a look at some of the attractions that this city boasts of :

Urangan Pier : Stretching over a distance of about 800 metres, the Urangan Pier is a favourite spot for joggers and daily runners. This lengthy pier also offers an excellent place for scenic strolls as well as enthusiastic anglers to try their fishing skills.

The Main Beach : The primary beach within Hervey Bay is lengthy, and the water washing its shores is perpetually calm. The eastern part provides a great view of sunsets, creating an illusion of the sun sinking into the ocean. Besides that, the place is also dotted with a number of parks, especially The Pines.

Arkarra Lagoons : Situated close to Hervey Bay, the Arkarra Lagoons provide a peaceful place for eating out at a cafe and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Taking a walk around here can be more rejuvenating than exhausting after a busy day, and the waters of the lagoons abound in turtles.

Whale Watching : The most awe-inspiring attraction of Hervey Bay, which is the ultimate reason for people to flock here in hundreds, is whale watching. Giant humpback whales from the cold Arctic region visit the warm waters of Hervey Bay from July to November every year. There are many agencies as well as accommodation facilities that organise whale watching tours for visitors, to watch the huge graceful mammals frolic in the blue waters carefreely.

Bike Ride : The extensive esplanade of Hervey Bay provides a pathway stretching over 15 kilometres right from Urangan boating club to the Point Vernon. Many people often hire bikes from local hostels to ride along this beautiful esplanade.

So, what are you waiting for? Pack your bags and get ready for a purely subtropical vacation in the charming city of Hervey Bay.
