Dolphins and Whales Galore!
If you’re as excited by sea life as much as we are, Tin Can Bay makes for a great morning out! Travelling up the east coast of Australia we were yet to see dolphins, though we’d heard from a few people we might see them in the area. Then we were told about Barnacles at […]
K’Gari Tag-a-long Tour
Day 1 As a ‘designated driver’, you start the day bright and early, getting to the Fraser Dingos’ depot before the rest of the group to be briefed on driving on the island. Then you get your first go in front of the wheel and you’re off! Time to collect the others and head off […]
A Saturday Morning Exploring in Hervey Bay
The Journey Begins… After last week’s dreary rain the renewed sunshine was very welcome. Determined to make the most of it we started the day fairly early and headed towards the beach! No time for swimming and sunbathing just yet though – we had our sights set on exploring first, with the promise of a […]
Wild weather getaways from Hervey Bay
There’s a magical turning point that occurs about two months into the Hervey Bay summer heat. The point where you start to secretly love the rain. Wait for it. Even actively wish for it. So when the rain finally started pouring a few days ago it felt like a big, fresh breath of air. Since […]
Become a Roo Whisperer at the Fraser Coast Wildlife Sanctuary
After a visit to the lovely Fraser Coast Wildlife Sanctuary just a 30 minute car ride from Woolshed Eco Lodge we can tell you this much : kangaroo whispering is not hard. At all. Pull out a bag of ”kangaroo food” and they come jumping straight at you. They’re not that soft and “whispery” though […]
Acknowledge Australia Day in Hervey Bay
First and foremost… We at Woolshed Eco Lodge acknowledge the traditional custodians of the great land we live in. We respect and understand the difficulties in recognizing this most recent date as a mile stone in the history of this land down under given the fact it is but a small page in the overall […]
Surfing at Rainbow Beach
You cannot go to Australia and not learn how to surf, right!? In Hervey Bay we don’t have much waves, but just an hour and a half away is the lovely Rainbow Beach. It’s definitely worth a day trip for anyone with a car (or a bus ticket)! The town of Rainbow Beach is t-i-n-y […]
New Year’s Eve – Hervey Bay
2023 is just around the corner. What better way to celebrate than on the beach! The main NYE Event in Hervey Bay will be held at walking distance from the Woolshed, at Torquay Foreshore (Bill Fraser Park and Ernie Organ Park). You’ll find it by walking down to the Esplanade, turn right and keep walking. […]
Santa made it to the Woolshed!
Just a few days before Christmas Day, we were surprised to find a booking from Mr. Santa Claus himself (and his 8 kangaroo ’reindeers’ who we finally decided to host in the garden and had a terrible time keeping out of the waterlily pond) Funny enough, Santa decided to visit on the 24th of December. […]
SUP through the Queensland Christmas
Merry Christmas, ya’ll! This really is the season to be jolly! 😀 The Queensland X-mas sun has been no letdown and the last week we’ve made the most of the incredible weather by trying a bunch of SUP-activities. Since Hervey Bay is protected from winds and waves by Fraser Island, the waters here are usually […]
