Whales migrate North from June to August 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 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.
Page 06. Hervey Bay & Fraser Island Tourist Guide No. 112.
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 whalewatches in the Bay legendary. Even if you have watched whales elsewhere, nothing compares to watching the curious humpback whales of Hervey Bay.

Choosing accommodation Resorts & Motels Are definitely the most commonly known type of accommodation. While it is commonly accepted they are expensive, the truth is resorts and motels can be a less expensive option. When looking for a resort and motel it may best to contact them directly to compare deals, rates, packages and availability.
Apartment rentals If you’re staying for a longer period, looking for a rental is a good choice. With a rental you have most or all the amenities at a competitive price.

Maintain a healthy weight Australia is facing an obesity epidemic. The scientific evidence suggests that one of the contributing issues is the replacement of healthy, nutritious food with energy dense food with minimal nutritional value in Australian dietary patterns. Health professionals working with people trying to achieve a healthy diet now have access to updated scientific evidence about the best dietary patterns for Australians of all ages. “To achieve and maintain a healthy weight, Australians need to balance physical activity with amounts of nutritious foods and drinks that meet energy needs. We all need to limit energy rich nutrient poor ‘junk foods’ that are high in saturated fat, added salt or sugar,” NHMRC CEO Professor Warwick Anderson said. A stringent review of around 55,000 scientific publications shows that the scientific evidence has strengthened about the link between diet and health. “The evidence that links a healthy diet and reducing the risk of chronic health problems such as heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, obesity and some cancers is stronger. There is also stronger evidence about the kind of foods that can increase the risk of weight gain and health problems,” Professor Anderson said. The revised Infant Feeding Guidelines have been issued. Prepared by experts in paediatric nutrition, nutrition research, nutrition communication, public health and primary health, these Guidelines will help healthcare workers support parents in giving infants the best nutrition and start to life. The Australian Dietary Guidelines and the Infant Feeding Guidelines are a joint initiative of NHMRC and the Department of Health and Ageing.

Delicious healthy & balanced
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 mouthwatering 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!

howard
A place for the whole family
Howard Rail Station 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.

Visit the home to Australia's Iconic Rum
Since 1888 when the Bundaberg Distillery was born, Bundaberg Rum and its home in Bundaberg has played a significant role in Australian culture. The Bundaberg Rum Distillery, Australia’s most-awarded rum distillery, opened the doors to a new $8.5million Visitor Experience in August 2016, showcasing over 129 years of rich Australian spirit. Recently voted the World’s Best Distillery Retail Experience at the 2018 Drinks International Distillery Challenge Awards, the Bundaberg Rum Visitor Experience is a world-class tourist attraction, celebrating Australia’s iconic Bundaberg Rum. The 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 immersive Bundaberg Rum Museum, and then meet up with one of the expert Distillery guides where you’ll continue the journey deep into the rich and golden heart of the 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 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 and Scotch to give each blend of rum a unique flavour.

Caution crossing creeks Be very careful when crossing Eli, Wyuna and Coongul Creeks. Large volumes of water create steep creek banks. Never attempt to cross Wathumba Creek or Moon Point estuaries. Before crossing any creek, walk through it, if safe, to check the depth of water and softness of sand. Never stop your vehicle midstream; your vehicle may sink or stall.

I fly 7000 miles nonstop to be here Black-tailed godwit. They are the only birds known to fly more than 7,000 miles nonstop, no breaks for water , no sleep, through cyclones, storms, headwinds. They leave Alaska in October, head straight for the Ocean. Though they are land birds, and cannot fish or rest on the sea, they will cross most of the Pacific Ocean, and fly all the way to New Zealand. Many of them are young, and have never done this before. No other bird can do what they do.
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.
Perched, Window & Barrage lakes 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.

Towing safety tips HERVEY BAY
For ALL your parts... 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.
