Hervey Bay Accommodation

Hervey Bay

Hervey Bay is a quiet coastal city situated approximately 3 1/2 hours drive north of Brisbane, via the Bruce Highway and 30 minutes drive north-east of Maryborough. Hervey Bay is the main entry point for Fraser Island, the world's largest sand island, and is one of the best places in Australia to view humpback whales.

Hervey Bay is made up of five suburbs: Point Vernon, Pialba, Scarness, Torquay, Urangan. Hervey Bay's suburbs are situated along 10km stretch of coastline allowing for a range of water activities such as swimming and fishing. The local economy relies on tourism, for which whale watching, Fraser Island and Lady Elliot Island and Hervey Bay's calm beaches are the major drawcards.
