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.
