View the Whales between June and September every year, right from the beach. Spectacular.

Logans Beach is the premier Whale Watching spot in Warrnambool, and it also an excellent surfing and bodyboarding beach.

Southern right Whales return to Logan’s beach every year between June and September to calve.They are often seen within 100 metres of the shore.A stunning place to visit anytime of the year.Check with Warrnambool visitor information centre to see if the Whales have been sighted as you may need to visit a few times.

Warrnambool is surrounded by coastline offering a mix of protected swimming beaches, exposed surf breaks and fun exploration. Running between the Breakwater and the famous whale nursery at Logans Beach, is the award-winning Foreshore Promenade. The Promenade is a scenic trail popular with walkers, runners, cyclists and skaters. Take a towel, stop off for a surf or swim, and don’t forget your camera. All our beaches are great to view from your car when the weather isn’t great (many locals spend their lunch break “doing a beachy”). Breakwater & Stingray Bay (Viaduct Road) The historic 1890 Breakwater has great views of the harbour and the city. At the mouth of the Merri River, Stingray Bay, is a beautiful, sheltered cove where you can explore crystal-clear rock pools. Every morning you can watch racehorses training in the water and on the beach. Lady Bay Warrnambool’s picturesque Lady Bay offers protected swimming along with surfing, yachting and windsurfing. There are over 29 shipwrecks in Lady Bay with interpretative signage highlighting some of the tragedies. The Warrnambool Surf Lifesaving Club patrols Lady Bay during the summer months and popular weekends. Logans Beach On the eastern bank of the Hopkins River mouth is Logans Beach. Logans Beach is most famous as the nursing ground for the Southern Right Whale. Each year, roughly between late May and early October, the whales return to Logan’s Beach where in clear view of the shore, the mothers and their children loll about and play, enjoying the shelter of Lady Bay. Middle Island (Oddball, Fairy Penguins and the Maremma Dogs) The Middle Island Maremma Project is a unique environmental program that uses a special breed of Maremma dogs to protect birds and penguins from fox and dog predation. Over summer, you can book a place on the ‘Meet the Maremma Tour’ and experience the project firsthand. Talk to the lovely staff at the Visitor Information centre to book. In 2015, the movie Oddball was released, documenting Swampy Marsh, a local chicken farmer who pioneered the program that still runs to this day.

Great at any time of year - particularly during May to September when you might be lucky enough to spot a mother and calf
