Fraser Island

Hervey Bay's Beachfront Caravan Parks are the ideal base from which to explore World Heritage listed Fraser Island "a must see" for adventurers and nature lovers while you're in the region.

There is nothing to compare with the world's largest sand island - stretching 124km in length and covering an expanse of 163,000 hectares of sand, it is dubbed by visitors as paradise on earth.

Swim in crystal clear freshwater lakes, meander through rainforests, and explore the pristine beauty of a wilderness reminiscent of another time.

Listen to the sounds of nature as you wander by crystal clear creeks and discover the diversity of flora and fauna the island boasts.

Fraser Island is an endless panorama of the colours, textures and wonders of nature. It continues to stun visitors with an amazing variety of landscapes from endless surf beaches to the rich reds and ochres of coloured sand cliffs; vast pure white sand blows to lush rainforests; dramatic basalt headlands to barren salt pans.

Highlights of a visit to Fraser include such notable landmarks as the wreck of the Maheno, Central Station, Woongoolba Creek, Lake McKenzie, Eli Creek and Lake Wabby.

To explore Fraser you can take the wheel of a 4WD and do your own thing, or benefit from the knowledge and experience of a ranger-guided tour.

Fraser Island day trips can be booked from all our Beachfront Caravan Parks. Contact the resident managers for details.

Fraser Island is a world apart - a unique natural environment. Whatever you do, don't miss it!
