Car Hire Hervey Bay

Hervey bay is best known for being the gateway to world famous Fraser Island, the largest sand island in the world. Drive your Hervey Bay Car Hire down to the marina in the suburb of Urangan, and take a boat or tour over to the island and see the rainforests, beaches and freshwater lakes which all make it so special. While in the area, check out the jetty at Urangan, just a little north of the marina. The jetty stretches for almost a kilometre out to sea, and is popular with fisherman, as well as local children diving into the water during warmer months.

Drive a Car Hire in Hervey Bay

Apart from Fraser Island, Hervey Bay is also known to be one of the best sites in Australia for whale watching. Humpback whales arrive in the bay each year in July to give birth in the warm, protected waters. The whales stay until around November, when they migrate back towards the Antarctic. If you are visiting Hervey Bay during these times, whale watching is a must. Either park your hire car near the shore and view them from the jetty or a high part of ground, or head out on one of the many boats catering to whale watching.

To get an insight into the history of Hervey Bay and how things once were, drive your rental car to the Hervey Bay Historical Village and Museum. Here you will find several historical houses that have been preserved from the city’s early days, as well as demonstrations from blacksmiths and woodworkers using the same methods as early settlers.
