Car
If you're traveling by car, start from the center of New England. Use the Pacific Highway (A1) and head towards Eden. Follow signs for Edrom Road. Once you reach Edrom, turn onto Davidson Walking Track. The Davidson Whaling Station is located approximately 1.5 kilometers down this track. There is ample parking available nearby.
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, take a bus from the main bus terminal in New England to Eden. Once you arrive in Eden, you will need to book a taxi or rideshare service to Davidson Walking Track, as public transport does not go directly to the whaling station. The taxi ride should take approximately 20 minutes and may cost around AUD 30-50 depending on traffic.
