Hervey Bay
Hervey Bay faces a sheltered stretch of Queensland coast across from K'gari. Its foreshore, boating and whale-watching interest make it a different base from the island itself.
The bay's mainland setting gives access to north-facing beaches and the waters towards Platypus Bay, where whale-watching trips are associated with the area. K'gari lies across the water and needs its own island plan. Hervey Bay suits a coastal base if you want time on the foreshore as well as a separate island or boat outing.
What to look for
The broad bay between the mainland and K'gari
North-facing beaches and foreshore
The offshore direction of Platypus Bay
Useful to know
Treat whale-watching as a separate boat outing and check current operators and conditions.
Arrange any K'gari visit as an island trip rather than a walk from the Hervey Bay foreshore.
