Marine mammal specialists were on site in Macquarie Harbour at Strahan on Tasmania's northwest coast, but the rescue bid was hampered by rough weather.
Twenty-two of the whales - each weighing two tonnes and up to 12 metres long - washed ashore on Saturday at Ocean Beach near Strahan, and all of them died.
Four others came into the harbour and became stranded on a sandbank. Two of these were successfully refloated and swam back out to sea, but the other two remain stuck.
