Located just off the coast from Hervey Bay, World Heritage listed Fraser Island will leave you feeling charmed and captivated. Spanning 124 kilometres and covering an area of 163 000 hectares, Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world and the only place on the planet where rainforest grows from sand.
An ecological masterpiece of giant sand dunes, rainforests, streams and perched fresh water lakes, Fraser is a nature lover's dream. Its Aboriginal name "K'Gari" appropriately means paradise.
An exceptional range of flora is found on Fraser Island. Cool and peaceful rainforests of towering Satinay and Brush Box trees, some over 1,000 years old, contrast with swampy wetlands, heathlands full of wild flowers and coastal strands of Pandanus palms.
Fraser Island boasts around 230 species of birds and 25 species of mammals including wallabies, possums, flying foxes, echidnas and Eastern Australia's purest breed of dingo. The warm waters surrounding the Island attract dugong, dolphins and turtles.Photos
