Crab Cottages on the Seafront
Official PartnerWake up to the sound of gentle waves and step across a quiet street to the beach at Crab Cottages on the Seafront, a collection of three freestanding holiday cottages set on the Urangan Esplanade in Hervey Bay. **Your own private retreat just steps from the sea — and minutes from Australia's Whale Watch Capital's famous departure point.** Built to a high standard and opened in 2021, Crab Cottages comprises two spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottages and a one-bedroom option — each thoughtfully designed for relaxed coastal living. Every cottage is fitted with king beds, generous indoor living spaces that open onto large outdoor decks with ceiling fans, a well-equipped full kitchen, a private laundry, air conditioning and complimentary Wi-Fi. Fully fenced yards mean your approved furry companion is as welcome as you are. Hervey Bay Marina — where you'll find departures for virtually all whale watch and K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) excursion tours — sits roughly 600 metres along the esplanade, making the cottages a convenient base for the region's best-loved experiences. Stock up at the shopping centre and supermarket 1.5 km away, or enjoy a meal at the Marina's bars, restaurants and the Hervey Bay Boat Club. The beach is just a short stroll across a quiet road, with dog-friendly leash-free hours running from 3 pm through to 8 am. High tide brings calm, safe swimming conditions; low tide reveals perfect conditions for yabbie pumping and shore fishing. A cool, shady foreshore park is equally close by. Off-road boat parking is available on site at no extra charge. One of the two-bedroom cottages has been designed with wheelchair access, ensuring Crab Cottages is a welcoming choice for guests with mobility needs. The property operates as entirely smoke free. Whether you're here to watch humpback whales play in the bay between July and October, explore the world's largest sand island, or simply unwind by the water, Crab Cottages on the Seafront puts you in the heart of it all — quietly, comfortably, and right by the sea.
