Annual migration of up to 10,000 kilometres 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 April 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 made commercial whaling so efficient that 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.

This means more aerial activity such as breaching (leaping nearly out of the water), and many head, tail and flipper displays. Hervey Bay’s 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.

Unique and 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.

Where the reef begins

Best known for its iconic rum and turtles, Bundaberg is one of the gems of the Southern Great Barrier Reef.

Our region is bursting with flavour boasting locally produced drinks and home-grown food from its rich soil. Adventure here begins on land and extends to the sea, the reef and beyond.

Start your escape by exploring our coastal gems, lakes gorges and rural landscape before heading to our shores where hundreds of sea turtles return to the beach each year to nest.

Later on their hatchlings will begin their journey to the ocean.

Early November – late March.

The waters of the Coral Coast are a proven snorkelling, fishing and diving paradise follow suit, and take the plunge. In Bundaberg you will find a vibrant and creative city centre - be sure to take in an exhibition at the Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery, Sample the thriving restaurant and café scene. Don't miss Botanical gardens attractions, Bundaberg Rum Distillery has educational guided tours & tastings at the headquarters for a stalwart Australian brand of rum, Hills St, Bundaberg East.

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.

Roundabout quiz Who gives way at a roundabout?

Do you signal at roundabouts when?

$

$

Going Straight ahead. You can approach without signalling. But:

$

Some people think you should give way to vehicles approaching from the right on a roundabout, but:

Make sure you signal left as you exit and turn your indicator off after you've left the roundabout.

Turning left. Here's the way to do it.

Approach the roundabout in the left lane or line of traffic. Then:

Turning Right. Approach the roundabout in the right lane or line of traffic, then signal right as you approach the roundabout and continue to signal right until you're ready to exit. Then:

Signal left before you exit the roundabout. The same rule applies if you intend driving beyond the right turn exit.

That's not the rule. You must give way to any vehicles already on the roundabout before you enter. It doesn't matter if a car is on your left or on your right.

Car Fuel Saving Tips 1. Drive economically Around town, you’ll use less fuel if you: Drive smoothly and try to maintain a steady speed. Manual, change up through the gears as soon as practical. Automatic, ease back slightly on the accelerator once at speed. Avoid peak hour and other heavy traffic where possible. Avoid engine idling for long periods.

On the freeway, you’ll use less fuel if you: Reduce speed - you can reduce your fuel consumption by as much as 25% by taking 20 km/h off your speed. Use cruise control if you’ve got it. Use your car’s air-conditioner sparingly. Keep windows up and use the ventilation system when travelling over about 50 km/h, if your car doesn’t have air conditioning. If your car’s transmission has power and economy modes, use the economy mode to ensure the transmission up-shifts earlier. This also helps reduce wear and tear on your car’s brakes, tyres and the other mechanical parts. Saves on running costs too.

2. Service your car regularly Keep the engine correctly tuned. Keep filters in good condition. Keep the fuel and ignition systems in good working order. Regularly change the engine oil using the correct grade of oil.

3. Inflate tyres correctly Check your tyre pressure once a week, when the tyres are cold. Keep tyres inflated to a pressure slightly higher than that stated in the vehicle handbook, find the tyre pressure on the tyre placard, which is typically inside the glove box, on the driver’s door or on the fuel filler flap. Setting the tyre pressure slightly higher will aid in fuel economy and safer handling.

4. Check the wheel alignment Ensure the wheel alignment is correctly set and the brakes aren’t dragging, as increase rolling resistance will use more fuel.

5. Check your load If you can, reduce the amount of gear in your car. Things like golf clubs and toolboxes add unnecessary weight, which in turn increases fuel consumption. External attachments ie: roof racks will increase wind resistance and fuel use.
