Located approximately 4 and a half hours north of Brisbane, K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) is the largest sand island in the world. Easily accessible by barge, the island is a significant part of Australia's natural and cultural heritage, protected by a World Heritage listing along with its close neighbour, the Great Barrier Reef. Home to a unique natural environment, K'gari boasts lush rainforests—the only place in the world where rainforest grows directly from sand. This rare and mysterious gem off Queensland's coastline is rich in both Aboriginal heritage and European history.
As one of Australia's most sought-after holiday destinations, K'gari offers a range of accommodation to suit every taste and budget. Families, couples, and groups are all well catered for on the island, with Kingfisher Bay Resort being one of the most popular places to stay. Guests can enjoy access to a range of facilities, including swimming pools and spas, beauty therapy and massage treatments, tennis courts, child-minding services, a variety of restaurants and bars, as well as general stores and boutiques.
A visit to K'gari is the experience of a lifetime, with world-class attractions at your doorstep. Hervey Bay, the gateway to K'gari, is renowned for its amazing whale watching. The Great Barrier Reef is just a short boat ride away, allowing you to see one of the Seven Wonders of the World at your leisure. There's also rainforest to explore, the Maheno shipwreck to discover, sand dunes to climb, and an abundance of native animal and plant life to observe. The island's unique lakes, some stained red with tannin or surrounded by pure white sand, offer a truly memorable swimming experience.
