Description:
Whale Watching / Passenger Catamaran - ' Spirit of Hervey Bay ' was designed and built especially for whale watching tours. Launched in July 2008, she is still in pristine condition. This vessel is a credit to the owners and staff for keeping it so well presented.
Fast and luxurious, the Spirit gets you to the whale's playground with minimal travelling time for maximum viewing pleasure with the whales. Extra comfortable with 6 viewing decks spread over 6 spacious levels, personal space is at a premium to move around at your leisure. You have to check out our Underwater Viewing Windows, waterline platform and open air top deck which offer something extra special to other vessels.
