Just a short distance north lies K’gari (Fraser Island), a UNESCO World Heritage site and the world’s largest sand island. Here you’ll find ancient rainforests growing on sand, crystal-clear freshwater lakes, long stretches of pristine beach, and abundant wildlife including dingoes, birds, and marine life. The region offers a wonderful mix of relaxation, natural beauty, and gentle adventure that feels both special and accessible.
