The Fraser Coast region is a rare destination, filled with natural wonders and some of the world's most unique attractions.
It boasts World Heritage listed Fraser Island, the largest sand island in the world, with spectacular coloured sands, freshwater lakes and towering rainforests. You can mingle with kangaroos, wallabies and other unique animals. And then there's Hervey Bay, the whale watching capital of Australia and popular access point to the Great Barrier Reef. |

Fraser Island is a unique natural environment and one of the few places on Earth where towering sub-tropical rainforest grows in the sand.
The island has about 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 and, between July and November each year, humpback whales. |

There are many different aspects to Fraser
Island, but the awe-inspiring beauty of Lake McKenzie makes
it probably the most visited natural site on the island.
There are more than 100 fresh water lakes and more than
40 perched lakes. |
