Staying in a hostel is an experience like no other. The real question is: which one do you choose? There are different hostels for different backpackers, and picking the right place is crucial for the perfect holiday!

Ending the night in a dorm room bunk bed is not as bad as it sounds (to those of you who haven’t had the pleasure of crashing in a bunk before). That is, as long as everyone follows the unspoken–and written hostel etiquette rules. Don’t worry, we’ve got them all right here to help you make sure you can be the perfect hostel guest.

More than 60,000 whales make their way up and down Australia’s coast each year, stopping in Hervey Bay for a rest along the way. Named the world’s first Whale Heritage Site, Hervey Bay’s calm waters are protected by K’gari, making it the perfect place for the whales to take a break.

Hervey Bay is one of Australia’s hidden gems that you just can’t miss. The cozy seaside town is the perfect place to kick back, relax, and enjoy the Fraser Coast in all of its beauty. Whether you’re stopping by on your way to K’gari or spending a weekend seeing the sights, you won’t want to miss the charm Hervey Bay has to offer.

Whether you’re an experienced globe-trotter or you’re dipping your toe into the world of backpacking, Hervey’s is the place to be. The 100-year-old building has been restored and designed to provide guests with the perfect stay while maintaining the historic charm of Queensland.
