Queensland Activities
Great Barrier Reef Cruise:

Whale Watching at Wide Bay Coast:
Tour the whale watching capital of the world! Watch these magnificent creatures up close in a natural environment. Watch as they launch themselves from the water, fly through the air then come crashing down in an explosion of sea spray. From July through October.
