🛶 Paddle Out for Whales 🛶
Be part of an unforgettable experience that blends fun, community spirit, and a deep love for the ocean at Paddle Out for Whales – Hervey Bay’s iconic tribute to the gentle giants of the sea. 🐋
Whether you're a seasoned paddler or just discovering the joy of being on the water, everyone is welcome to join this inspiring event. Grab your paddleboard, kayak, or surfboard and head into the bay with us as we unite in celebration and conservation of whales and our marine environment. 🌊
Paddle Out for Whales began as a peaceful protest during the early days of Hervey Bay’s whale-watching legacy. What started as a heartfelt tribute to whales lost to whaling has grown into a powerful movement of hope and action – with every flower cast into the sea symbolising remembrance and resilience. This moving ceremony includes a minute of silence to honour the whales and our shared responsibility to protect their world. It’s a chance to reflect, connect, and be part of something bigger than ourselves.
Join us for Paddle Out for Whales – and help shape a future where these majestic creatures can thrive for generations to come.
