A Natural Wonderland

The Fraser Coast

The Fraser Coast is located approximately 300 kilometres north of Brisbane and includes the townships of Hervey Bay and Maryborough, the adjacent coast to the landward side of Fraser Island and as far south as Tin Can Bay, as well as Fraser Island itself. World famous for some of the most interactive natural experiences on earth, the Fraser Coast is truly where nature comes alive and the best place to experience it all is on the water. Discover the difference of World-Heritage-listed natural gems, safe and secluded beaches and the number one place to watch humpback whales play.

Hervey Bay

Situated 3.5 hours drive north of Queensland’s capital, Brisbane, Hervey Bay is a natural bay between the mainland and World Heritage-listed K'Gari (Fraser Island). Renowned for its visiting humpback whales, and the close and intimate Whale Watching experiences, Hervey Bay is a popular playground for tourists all year round because of its mild climate.

K'Gari (Fraser Island)

K'Gari (Fraser Island), Australia, the largest sand Island in the world, is home to ancient rainforests, mirror-like freshwater lakes, endless white-sand beaches, magnificent cliffs of coloured sands, alluring crystal clear creeks, and an array of animals including pure dingos. With a plethora of breathtaking vistas to feast your eyes on, it is no wonder why the first Australian’s named Fraser Island K’Gari, which translates to ‘paradise’.
The turquoise waters surrounding this paradise offer a safe and sheltered canvas to explore. The warm waters surrounding the island attract dugong, reef fish, manta rays, dolphins and turtles and humpback whales (July-Oct). The World Heritage-Listed paradise and its beautiful waterways offer all one could ever want.

The Great Sandy Strait

The Great Sandy Strait is home to Fraser Island (K'gari), white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, hidden shipwrecks and more. Between the Fraser Coast’s mainland and Fraser Island lies the Great Sandy Strait, about 70km of crystal clear waters, white sandy beaches, a network of shallow lying flats and a maze of creeks. The Great Sandy Biosphere covers 540,000 hectares of marine park and was highlighted by UNESCO in 2009 in the same class as the Galapagos Islands, the Central Amazon and Uluru.
