Whales migrate North from April to November Each year between April and November, Australia’s eastern coastline is a scene of spectacular acrobatic displays of humpback whales. After a summer of feeding on krill in Southern Antarctic waters, these charismatic animals migrate north to sub-tropical waters where they mate and give birth. The majority of humpbacks in Australian waters migrate north from June to August, and back towards the Southern Ocean from September to November during their annual migration of up to 10 000 kilometres. The exact timing of the migration period can vary from year to year depending on water temperature, sea ice, predation risk, prey abundance and the location of their feeding ground. At a maximum length of 16 metres, the humpback is not the largest whale found in Australian waters. This species was once only valued dead — mainly for its oil and baleen, or ‘whalebone’. Beginning in Australia shortly after
European colonisation, whaling and the export of whale products became Australia’s first primary industry. Early Australian whalers once hunted from small boats, towing their catch back for processing at shore stations which one was believed to be at Urangan on the shore at Dayman Park. The development of harpoon guns, explosive harpoons and steam-driven boats commercial whaling so efficient many whale species came very close to extinction. When southern right whales and blue whales became scarce, Australian whalers began to target humpback whales, killing approximately 8300 off the east coast between 1949 and 1962 until the International Whaling Commission banned humpback whaling in the Southern Hemisphere in 1963. It is estimated that the east coast population of humpbacks was sadly little over 100 individuals.

Preferred area for Winter
30 years of watching
Hervey Bay is a unique winter stopover ground for the migratory parade of Humpback whales. It is believed the calm, shallow, protected waters of the Bay is a preferred area for yearlings, sub-adult (sexually immature whales), followed by mature females in late August, and then we begin to see mothers with newborn calves in Sept-Oct. By mid-September the mature males have found the Bay, and the waters come alive with their haunting songs. The arrival of the males, also means increased activity with males competing with one another for access to females. This means more aerial activity such as breaching (leaping nearly out of the water), and many head, tail and flipper displays. Hervey Bay the only area in the world where humpbacks consistently approach vessels. The curious humpbacks of Hervey Bay provide some of the most unusual and prolonged encounters with humans. These ‘muggings' are very unusual outside of the Bay and have made whale watches in the Bay legendary. Even if you have watched whales elsewhere, nothing compares to watching the curious humpback whales of Hervey Bay.
Commercial whale watching in Australia began the day Brian and Jill Perry discovered whales in the calm pristine waters of Hervey Bay on the Fraser Coast of Queensland. Since that fateful day 29 years ago over a million people have been whale watching in Hervey Bay. Brian & Jill are celebrating 30 years of whale watching in Hervey Bay and they are expecting a great whale watching season this year. Their vessel, Quick Cat II was designed in 2003 specically with whale watching in mind for access for all. Wheelchairs and prams can easily manouevre around the main deck. The award-winning vessel has won over 40 awards including 10 Fraser Coast South Burnett Tourism Awards for Excellence, has been awarded Advanced Eco Tourism Accreditation and been entered into the Fraser Coast Hall of Fame for its achievements in the whale watching industry. Quick Cat II is the most awarded whale watching vessel in Australia.
The Hump Back - Hervey Bay’s Favourite whale Humpback whales are enormous creatures - about the size of a school bus. They are known for their haunting and melodic songs and for breaching the water with amazing acrobatic abilities. Humpbacks don't normally have a hump on their backs; the name comes from the large hump that forms when they arch their backs before making a deep dive into the ocean. Humpback whales are not the biggest whales - that's the blue whale. Humpbacks can grow to 60 feet (18 meters) long, and they can weigh a whopping 40 tons (about half the size of a blue whale). Their ippers can grow up to 16 feet (5 m) long, which is the largest appendage in the world. Their tails are also massive and grow up to 18 feet (5.5 m) wide. Like most whales, females are larger than males. Humpbacks often propel themselves above the water and then splash back down, this is called breaching. Believed that they may do this to splash off parasites, but they may just do it because it's fun. They also slap the water with their tails or ippers. These behaviours may be used to communicate with one another. They may also be used to show dominance and health during mating season. Page 10. Hervey Bay & Fraser Island Tourist Guide No. 107
Humpback whales are known for their haunting songs, which are complex sequences of moans, howls and cries that often continue for hours. It is believed only male whales sing, so scientists think they are trying to attract potential mates.

The Bay’s other Whales Antarctic Minke Whale Bryde's Whales is more robust than the other large rorquals (large baleen whales). The rostrum of the Antarctic Minke Whale is very narrow and pointed, with a single ridge on the head . museumvictoria.com.au The maximum length of Antarctic Minke Whales appears to be around 9.8 m. Are not gregarious and tend to swim alone or in pairs, large feeding groups of up to 400 individuals may form. Minke whales are known to be curious, often approaching boats from a distance. Antarctic Minke Whales probably do not migrate as far north as Dwarf Minke Whales but this species does undergo extensive migration between the summer Antarctic feeding grounds and winter sub-tropical to tropical breeding grounds. Mature Antarctic Minke Whales feed primarily on the Antarctic Krill. www.environment.gov.au
Pilot Whales have a robust body with a thick tail stock. The dorsal fin is wide, broad based, falcate and set well forward on the body. Occurring in tropical and warm-temperate museumvictoria.com.au waters world-wide. The Long-finned Pilot Whale is widely recorded in colder waters off southern Australia. The Short-Finned Pilot Whales reaches physical maturity at approximately 17 years and is more than 5 m in length, a maximum age of 46 years. while females are smaller at 4.8 m and reach 63 years. Feeding mainly on squid, cuttlefish, octopus and some fish. www.environment.gov.au

are the second smallest of the (baleen whales). The rostrum is V-shaped but has three parallel ridges between the blowhole and nostril tip. And can grow to 14.6 museumvictoria.com.au m (males) or 15.6 m (females). Bryde's Whales are not gregarious and mostly swim alone or in pairs. Bryde's Whale is considered to be a fairly opportunistic feeder, readily consuming whatever shoaling prey is available, such as pilchard, anchovy, sardine, mackerel, herring and other schooling fish . www.environment.gov.au
Southern Right Whales are large baleen whales with a less streamlined shape than balaenopterids like Humpback Whales. They grow to a maximum length of 17.5 m and weight of 80 t, with mature museumvictoria.com.au females often slightly larger than males. The majority of are uniformly black in colour, no dorsal fin. Thought to be solitary during migration, or accompanied by a dependent calf or occasionally a yearling offspring. Forming large groups in breeding areas. These have been recorded in the coastal waters of all Australian states with the exception of the Northern Territory. Krill is a major food source and require adequate supplies of food to accumulate energy reserves that is essential for migration and breeding. Depletion of krill through over harvesting may be a potential future threat for the Australian population of Southern Right Whales. www.environment.gov.au Publishing for over 26 years

Walking and Depression Clinical depression is defined as sadness that is greater and more prolonged than is warranted. Characterised by withdrawal, inactivity, dullness, and feelings of loss of control and helplessness. For many people suffering from clinical depression, regular exercise (three times a week or more appears to work best) has been shown to act as a mood elevator. In a University of Wisconsin study, exercise appeared to be as effective as psychotherapy at relieving moderate depression. People with moderate depression were randomly assigned to either psychotherapy or exercise programs. After a year, over 90 percent of the people who had been assigned to the exercise program were no longer depressed. Half of the patients in the psychotherapy group, however, had come back for more treatment. Exercise gives people a real opportunity to set and achieve goals and to see and measure personal improvement. Walking may also promote feelings of pleasure, tranquillity, and well-being and help relieve the pain of depression by encouraging the production of the body's natural opiates, called endorphins. These chemical cousins of morphine are responsible for the feeling of euphoria called "runner's high." Exercise can help distract depressed people from their feelings of sadness. Also, since regular aerobic exercise is an important aid in losing weight and toning muscles, exercisers may feel the general sense of well-being that stems from knowing they look better and feel healthier. tr

Asian food is one of the most delicious types of cuisine available to enjoy today. The wonderful thing about this food is that it tastes so good. Visit any of these restaurants and enjoy this mouth-watering cuisine. Other great aspects about Asian cooking are the healthy benefits this food offers. Very often vegetables are balanced with entrees and fried dishes come with steamed dishes or soups. The majority of people believe that Asian cuisine is healthy and well balanced. The different types of Asian food that we love to enjoy include the following: crab, cabbage, carrots, duck, tofu, cucumber, bean sprouts, bamboo, eggs, chicken, beef, glutinous rice, mushrooms, ginger, watercress and sesame oil. So visit one of our local restaurants as advertised in our guide today!

141 Old Bruce Highway Howard
Ph: 1800 649 721 or 4129 4859 www.burrumrivercaravanpark.com Howard is situated beside the Bruce Highway, about 34km north west of Hervey Bay and 20 km north of Maryborough. William Howard travelled through the area in 1857 to go on and discover the rich Isis scrub (Childers). He later owned mining leases in the area. At one stage about 25% of Queensland coal was raised in the district. Citrus growing soon took over from timber getting as the district's second industry after coal. Lenthalls Dam off the Bruce Highway near Howard is a fishing and boating paradise. It's a great place for the whole family and worthwhile if you are keen on freshwater fishing. A fishing permit is required. The area which has Picnic Races are a must to see annually in October. The 6 furlong race track at Torbanlea was first created in 1890 as a half mile track that had no rails, dodging trees and stumps along the way. The local climate recognised as Australia's most liveable.

A Guide to State Schools KAWUNGAN STATE SCHOOL An Independent Public School
Education Queensland delivers high-quality and accessible public education to around 70 per cent of all Queensland school students through the state schooling system. The Department is responsible for 1250 schools staffed by more than 36 000 teachers and attended by almost 480 000 students. Queensland state education operates as a partnership between schools and their communities. All state schools are coeducational. From 2007 a full-time Preparatory Year replaced Preschool. The school year usually runs from late January to midDecember. It is divided into two semesters, with two terms in each and vacation breaks for Easter, winter, spring and summer.
Our school sits atop the beautiful hinterland of Hervey Bay not 3 km from the sparkling ocean. It's environmentally pleasing grounds and gardens are often the talk of visitors to the school. We pride ourselves on a small environmental foot print. Opening in 1991 the school quickly gained a reputation for its achievement of excellence, in particular its Excellence in Music program and the success of its choirs and bands. 25 years later that reputation still exists and is being built on by our professional staff. Reading and Numeracy are of course our highest priority. Outcomes for our students in these areas are excellent. Of most interest is the 'distance travelled' by each particular student in their learning journey. Our P&C association does an amazing job of bringing our community together and in raising much needed funds for the school. Mother's and Father's Day, school discos, parent workshops, parent café, uniform shop and tuckshop are all initiatives successfully implemented in the school. The school caters to a broad range of students including those with special needs. Inclusivity is a hallmark of our school. Our vision statement is, “Helping Each Other Achieve Excellence”. Interested in enrolling? Come and have a chat.
Kawungan State School Invest in your child’s future • High academic results • Music excellence program • A warm & welcoming team atmosphere for learning • On-site out of school hours and holiday care • Great community spirit

Unique & historical architecture Maryborough is just an easy 20 minute drive from Hervey Bay and is commonly referred to as the Heritage City. Its streets are lined with beautifully restored Queenslanders and civic buildings and it’s well worth a visit for the historically minded, or the camera buff with plenty of unique and historical architecture to photograph. Stroll through the historical Wharf Street precinct, offering a glimpse into life in a busy immigration port. Some of the historical attractions include: The Military and Colonial Museum, the Post Office Hotel and Criterion Hotel, Customs House Interpretive Centre, Bond Store Museum and Customs Residence Cellar Door.

The whole of Maryborough's wharf precinct is a cultural treasure. Ghosts from the 19th Century seem to frequent the Customs House Hotel, in Maryborough's Wharf Street. Strange things have been known to happen there all the time, taps get mysteriously turned on, or you'll hear noises on the staircase in the middle of the night. From the 1840s to well after 1900, Maryborough and Sydney were the only two ports on Australia's east coast permitted to accept and process immigrants. More than 30,000 people Scots, Danes, Germans, Kanakas (Fiji and Vanuatu islanders) and others, passed through Maryborough on their way to a new life. Until 1842, little was known about the Maryborough region. Cook, Flinders and Oxley had charted the coastline but the arrival of E.T. Aldridge and his party in 1848 was the catalyst for the rapid growth of a village, a port for wool and other primary produce and the establishment of a sawmill on the northern bank of the Mary River. The Wharf precinct still has many of its original buildings.
Live action at Sanctuary Fraser Coast Wildlife Sanctuary Inc. is a non-for-profit organisation formed by a dedicated band of volunteers and is involved in the rescue and rehabilitation of native fauna. A day at the sanctuary is not only fun, but educational. Be greeted by Charlie, our 30 year old Long Billed Corella, interact with the dingos, feed the kangaroos, wallabies and emus at 2 pm each day, walk through the free flight aviary and make use of our BBQ for a picnic lunch. The sanctuary is open 7 days a week from 10am to 5pm. Please visit our advert on page 14 for more information. Markets are held on the third Sunday of every month from 7am to noon.

Visit the home to Australia's Iconic Rum The Bundaberg Distilling Company (BDC), Australia's most awarded rum distillery and the home of Bundaberg Rum, has opened the doors to its new Visitor Experience following an $8.5m upgrade. Marking one of the most significant investments in the distillery's 127-year history, the new Visitor Experience is a testament to the ongoing popularity of Bundaberg Rum and the brands' commitment to the Bundaberg region. The Visitor Experience now offers two new tour experiences in addition to the famous Distillery tour – The Bundaberg Rum Museum Experience and a Blend Your Own Rum Experience. There is also an expanded retail experience and bar area where visitors can purchase exclusive and limited edition products only available from the distillery. Bundaberg Rum Museum Experience Inside the Museum's self-guided tour, six 75,000 litre oak vats, that have previously matured thousands of litres of Bundaberg's finest rums, have been emptied and rebuilt, allowing visitors to walk through them in a unique sensory experience that showcases the proud and rich history behind Australia's favourite rum. The Distillery Experience Get the full Bundaberg Rum experience; first, by making your way through the fully immersive Bundaberg Rum Museum where you'll get a taste of the proud and rich history behind the most famous rum making address in Australia - including the world's
largest collection of Bundaberg Rum bottles that have housed our golden liquids since way back when. Then, meet up with one of our expert Distillery guides where you'll continue the journey deep into the rich and golden heart of our fully operational Bundaberg Rum Distillery. Blend Your Own Rum Experience In an Australian first for a rum distillery, visitors now have the opportunity to craft their own personalised Bundaberg Rum blend from a selection of premium rums that have never before been released to the general public. During the experience, participants will spend time with two expert rum blending guides who will teach the group the art of tasting rum straight from the barrel. These premium rums have been aged in small oak barrels that have previously matured Port, Sherry, Bourbon, Scotch and aged Bundaberg Rum to give each blend of rum a unique flavour. The new Visitors Centre will also be the new home to the annual Spirit of Bundaberg Festival, the next one of which will take place on 14 October 2017. For more information on the new Visitors Experience and/or The Spirit of Bundaberg Festival, visit www.bundabergrum.com.au or call 07 4131 2999.

Facts on paradise • Known for thousands of years as K’gari, or P aradise. • Fraser Island located just south of the Great Barrier Reef • Fraser island is about 120 kilometres long and ranges between 22 km at its widest point to 5 km wide. • Captain James Cook first noted the island in 1770 and presume it to be part of the main land and named it the Great Sandy Peninsula. • Matthew Flinders came ashore over 200 years ago at Sandy Cape. • Captain Willliam Edwardson navigated the passage from Tin Can Bay to Hervey Bay determining that Great Sandy Peninsula was an Island. • A new name was given to the island in 1836 after the survivors of a shipwreck of the Stirling Castle found there way ashore and the death of Captain J . Fraser. • 1863 The first Kauri logs where punted to the mills at Maryborough and Dundathu. • Red Satinay was used around the world, including sidings on the Suez Canel and the docks in London. It was also used locally on the Urangan Jetty, with the bark left intact for protection against marine borers. • Marloo was shipwrecked on Orchid Beach in 1914. • Maheno beached north of Happy Valley in 1935. • A fine layer of decomposing vegetation seals the basins formed by the sand dunes and creates its many perched lakes some as much as 70 metres above sea level.

Perched, Window & Barrage lakes
www.ozmagic3.homestead.com Syd James
Perched lakes are separate from the inuence of groundwater. They can be signicantly reduced by evaporation in prolonged dry periods and ll again when good rainfall occurs. Boomanjin, Birrabeen and McKenzie (Boorangoora) are the most frequently occurring type of perched lake on the island. They develop when an impermeable ‘hard pan’ of organic debris forms in a depression between dunes, enabling runoff and rainwater to collect. Window lakes, such as Lake Wabby, are generally found at low elevations, forming where the ground surface dips into the watertable. Barrage lakes form when a mobile sand dune dams a watercourse or encroaches on a lake, usually in younger dunes close to the coast. Lake Wabby is both a window and a barrage lake. The world’s largest perched lake, Lake Boomanjin (200ha), and some of the world’shighest lakes, Boomerang Lakes (120m above sea level), are found on the island.
Great Sandy Marine Park Marine Park zones and designated areas have been chosen within the Great Sandy Marine Park to protect the area’s features, wildlife and habitat. Great Sandy Strait - from Dayman Point - Sandy Point (near Hervey Bay) to Tin Can Bay in the south - is a Ramsar wetland of international importance. It has been declared a shorebird designated area within the marine park to protect migratory shorebirds.
Give all birds a wide berth Long-distance migratory shorebirds gather in great numbers at critical sites along the island’s sandy shores and throughout the Great Sandy Strait. Shorebirds feed in the intertidal zone at low tide, day and night. Long-distance migratory birds must gain sufcient weight in preparation for their northern hemisphere breeding season. All sea and shorebirds must rest and feed as their energy budgets are critically tight. These birds require protection. Even one disturbance can put birds at risk by burning energy crucial for surviving tough migrations and weather conditions. Constant rising and settling from disturbances contributes to exhaustion, leaving these birds more vulnerable to death. Give all birds a wide berth. Observe shorebirds and seabirds from a distance.

Towing with safety First, make sure you have a tow bar that is up to the job! If you can afford it, it's worth paying for a professional installation. Make sure you're familiar with any laws that apply, especially if you are travelling abroad. In particular, make sure you know the speed limits. In some countries you need a separate warning light fitted in the car to show that the caravan direction indicator lights are working. * Coping with the load - are the engine, brakes, tyres and suspension up to the job? * Trailer or tow bar weights - check your car's handbook for the maximum weights allowed. * Rear view - make sure you can see behind the caravan using the car's mirrors. Extending side mirrors can be fitted to most cars. * Check tyre pressures - unless you are towing a light, unladen trailer, the car tyres should be inflated to full load pressures (check your car's handbook). Check the caravan tyre pressures are correct too. * Headlight set up - check the aim with the caravan attached, and have it adjusted if necessary. Many cars these days have an adjuster on the dashboard. * Caravan lights - the extra load on the flasher circuit may cause the indicators to flash too slowly, so you may need a heavy duty flasher unit. Check brake, side and number plate lights. * Loading the caravan - refer to the manufacturer's recommendations. As a general rule, distribute the weight with the heaviest items as near as possible to the caravan axle. Secure all heavy items so they can't move. Car manufacturers usually specify an optimum noseweight for a caravan when loaded. If necessary, move the load to get as close as possible to the recommended noseweight and do not exceed it. * Engine - don't put unnecessary strain on the engine by trying to tow an unsuitably heavy load. The extra load on an engine when towing may mean that the cooling system is no longer adequate - you may be able to have modified cooling system components (a larger radiator, etc.) fitted to cope with this problem if you tow regularly. * Suspension - Towing puts extra strain on a car's suspension components and can affect the handling of a car. Heavy duty rear suspension components are available for most cars to enable to cope with towing. * Reversing - There are some very simple rules to follow. It may seem a difficult concept to grasp at first, but instead of being able to turn your car steering wheel in the direction that you want your trailer/caravan to go, you must turn it in the opposite direction. It might take a little time to master this technique, especially when reversing round a corner. When reversing in a straight line, the easiest way to remember what to do is to steer towards the towing mirror in which the trailer or caravan appears.

River Heads - best kept secret Located right at the mouth of the iconic Mary River in Hervey Bay’s South is one of the region’s best kept secrets. River Heads is a small peninsula separating the Mary and Susan River systems from the Great Sandy Straits and has some of the best views of Fraser Island and the Straits available anywhere in the region. Its natural elevation of up to around 50m above sea level means there are plenty of vantage points to view the surrounding landscapes as far as Bauple Mountains just north of Gympie. And despite being surrounded by water has remained flood free over the past years when the Mary River has shown its true power. Its unique location makes it the perfect spot to begin your adventure on Fraser Island with two vehicular barges servicing Kingfisher Bay Resort and Wanggoolba Creek on the Islands Western side and its close proximity to the Fraser Coast Airport. The waters surrounding River Heads are an anglers paradise with most estuary fish including large Barramundi and Salmon available on the Western side and reef fish on the Eastern side between Fraser Island. The close knit community that live in River Heads take great pride in their area and wouldn’t live anywhere else. The local shopping village provides everything needed with a supermarket, bottle shop, medical centre with pharmacy, café and Kingfisher Bay passenger terminal and is the best place to stock up on supplies before hitting the island.
