Once a collection of sleepy fishing villages, Hervey Bay is now a bustling regional centre firmly in the spotlight of national and international retailers. Its growth has brought with it great facilities for the local community, especially when it comes to hospitals – some of the best in Australia. With schools, universities, shopping centres, restaurants, cafes, and an airport nearby, it has all the services and amenities needed for living a comfortable and happy life 20 minutes’ away.

Hervey Bay is renowned for being the whale watching capital of Australia. Its calm seas entice vast numbers of humpback whales to visit between August and September each year, as they make their way back to the Antarctic from their summer breeding grounds near the equator.

A stone’s throw across the water is the heritage listed Fraser Island. This historic and iconic island is famous for its enchanting beaches and pristine subtropical waters. Head over to experience some of its famous camping amenities, or spend the day exploring with a four-wheel drive.

With an increase in remote working, now is the perfect time to skip the city and move somewhere you’ve always dreamed of living. The airport at Hervey Bay means fly-in-fly-out and weekly commuting are a breeze. With world-class facilities nearby, you can work anywhere in Queensland and still call Dolphin Waters, Burrum Heads home.
