    My family and I had the most incredible experience on the sunset boat tour. The peacefulness of the water, the stunning views of the sunset, and the relaxing atmosphere made for a truly unforgettable evening. Salty safaris had everything from beach games to drinks as you watch the sunset. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a magical way to unwind and connect." And a special thanks to the crew who made the experience all the more memorable.

    11/10 experience! If you want the ultimate whale experience look no further. We did the whales and beaches tour and it was nothing short of incredible. The boat was clean, modern, fast and so much fun and the crew were the perfect mix of knowledgeable and fun and made the whole trip unforgettable. The smaller boat meant we got so close to the whales we could almost touch them and the crew knew exactly how to spot the friendliest whales who loved to interact. To top it all off we also got to get in the water with the whales for a swim, and had whales swimming right beneath us which was just unreal. Literally couldn’t fault this trip, would have paid triple and still felt like I got amazing value. Thank you so much Salty Safari for a once in a life time day!

    We saw Loggerhead sea turtles, sting rays we loved the snorkelling in the crystal clear water We recently went out with the crew at Salty Safaris. We went to explore the gorgeous West Coast of Fraser Island. On this trip, we discovered everything that makes the Fraser Coast so special, from swimming with humpback whales to witnessing whales breaching, observing wild dingos in action, and enjoying the crystal-clear blue waters this side of Fraser is famous for. That wasn't all; we also saw dolphins and turtles among many other things. The crew was absolutely amazing, and the music set the vibe for a great day we will cherish forever. Don't look past these guys when booking a tour of the West Coast in Hervey Bay; you won't regret it.

    Had the best day out ever on the weekend aboard K’gari Salty Safaris, crew took us straight to the best spots where we got to see a bunch of whales as well as swim along side them as they hung around the boat, along with seeing plenty of other amazing sea animals and dingoes! Stopped off at pelican banks which was amazing! Would highly recommend!!
