Experience Whale Watching From The Luxury Of BedarraLux Private Villa

Immerse yourself in the breathtaking spectacle of whale migration, all from the comfort of BedarraLux's exclusive magnesium plunge pool.
A Front-Row Seat to Nature's Majestic Display
Nestled on the secluded Bedarra Island, BedarraLux offers an unparalleled vantage point for observing the annual migration of humpback whales. From June to November, these magnificent creatures traverse the Coral Sea, often passing close to the island's shores. Guests can witness this awe-inspiring event directly from the resort's magnesium plunge pool, combining luxury with a profound connection to nature.


"The good thing about the humpback whale migration is that they like to pay a visit to the entire coastline," notes Queensland.com, highlighting the accessibility of whale sightings along Queensland's coast.

Optimal Viewing Periods
The whale watching season in Queensland extends from June to November, with peak activity typically observed between July and September. During this period, humpback whales migrate northward to warmer waters for breeding and calving, before returning south to Antarctic feeding grounds. BedarraLux's strategic location provides guests with a unique opportunity to observe these gentle giants in their natural habitat.


"An estimated 40,000+ whales migrate north," reports StradbrokeIsland.com, underscoring the abundance of whales during the migration season.
Enhancing Your Whale Watching Experience
While the resort's pool offers a serene setting for whale observation, guests seeking a closer encounter can arrange private boat tours. Local operators provide personalised charters, allowing for an intimate experience with the marine life surrounding Bedarra Island. These excursions can be tailored to include snorkelling, fishing, and scenic tours, offering a comprehensive exploration of the region's natural beauty.


"Completely personalised tours with no crowds or waiting," describes Mission Beach Charters, emphasizing the bespoke nature of these experiences.

Sustainable Wildlife Observation
At BedarraLux, we prioritise responsible and sustainable wildlife viewing practices. Guests are encouraged to maintain a respectful distance from marine life and adhere to guidelines that protect the well-being of the whales and their environment. This commitment ensures that future generations can continue to enjoy these natural spectacles.
