    Tuesday 10 October 2023

    Breakfast will be served from 6:30am. Fraser Island is regarded as Australia's number one whale-watching destination! The humpbacks aren't just passing by each July to October - they're taking time out in the calm, sheltered waters off Fraser Island's western bay to socialise, have some fun, learn some essential life skills and nurture their young.

    This morning you'll enjoy a Half Day Whale Watch Cruise on the World Heritage-listed waters, joining in on the excitement as you witness these oceanic giants up close. Enjoy expert commentary from the family-operated crew that conduct the longest established whale watching company in Australia.

    On your return from the cruise, relive the morning's highlights over lunch at the Sand & Wood Restaurant. After lunch you are free to explore the resort or sit back and relax after an amazing morning.

    Late this afternoon, spend time with the Resort's Chef and Ranger as you learn about and experience the local bush tucker. Nibble on native berries bursting with flavour and relish in the refreshing citrus of lemon myrtle as the Chef and Resort Ranger explain how these ingredients can be utilised in cooking.

    This evening enjoy a Bush tucker infused 2 course menu.

Travel at 60 Social Getaways

Travel further when you're not travelling alone

Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.

Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.

  • A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
  • Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
  • Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.

Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
