Fraser and sunshine coast famil options

Visit K’gari (Fraser Island) to be dwarfed by ancient rainforests growing out of only sand and to explore the freshwater lakes and spectacular sand formations on one of the most incredible islands on earth. World Heritage-listed K’gari has the absolute best that one island can offer - cool towering rainforests to walk through; more than 100 freshwater lakes to swim in, and an amazing 120-kilometre beach highway, complete with the shipwreck of the Maheno and cliffs of the stunning-coloured sands.

With a range of accommodation from backpacker hostels to five-star resorts, Hervey Bay is a popular holiday destination particularly for those on their way to K’gari or Lady Elliot Island. The town is a great place for water activities like fishing, sailing, swimming and kayaking. Take an eco-tour to see dolphins, turtles and other marine life - or go diving at Hervey Bay's sheltered artificial reef, the largest man-made reef in the Southern Hemisphere.

Just north of Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast offers a relaxed, yet sophisticated lifestyle. Encompassing the coastline from Caloundra to Rainbow Beach and the lush countryside of the hinterland, the beauty of this region will captivate you.

Visit Queensland’s Fraser Coast and be forever changed by raw nature. Why? It’s home to two heritage-listed jewels: the world’s largest sand island and the world’s first whale heritage area. The locals know it as K’gari, and there’s more than a few reasons why World-Heritage listed Fraser Island is a natural paradise.
