Just a taste of this World Heritage listed paradise will leave you feeling charmed and captivated. Spanning 124 kilometres and covering an area of 163,000 hectares, Fraser Island has developed over 800,000 years. You will discover a variety of amazing landscapes, ancient rain forests, endless beaches, freshwater lakes, including the world's largest perched lake, coloured sand cliffs, coloured gorges, swamps, giant trees and huge sand blows just waiting to be explored. Access to Fraser Island is by vehicular barge available from Hervey Bay (Urangan Boat Harbour or River Heads) or Rainbow Beach. Escorted tours are available. A four wheel drive vehicle is essential, as all roads are sand tracks. Being a World Heritage listed site, Fraser Island joins the ranks of the Great Barrier Reef, Uluru and Kakadu National Parks as being of universal significance as the largest coastal dune system and sand island in the world and for its special environments. As a precious part of Queensland's natural and cultural heritage, it is protected for all to appreciate, enjoy and respect. |
