Fraser Venture Tours
Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world, and has been given the ultimate accolade as a very special environment by being inscribed on the World Heritage List.
Its 163,000 hectares encompass an amazing variety of landscape: long surf pounded beaches; vast, desert like sandblows; freshwater lakes; heathlands brilliant with spring wildflowers; winding streams; great basalt headlands and forest clad dunes rising to 240 metres, among the highest in the world.
Eurong Beach Resort is 32 km from the southern tip of Fraser Island. In its immediate hinterland is the most magnificent rainforest on the island, Central Station Forest Park and Wanggoolba Creek with its crystal clear waters overhung by palms and ferns, including the ancient Angiopteris fern, a specie more than 4 million years old.
There too is the famous circle of the island's unique perched lakes; McKenzie, Jennings, Birrabeen, Benaroon and Boomanjin, the largest perched lake in the world. Each of them has its own special atmosphere, dazzling white sandy beaches and warm, clear waters.
North along the surf beach from Eurong, With very easy walking, is Lake Wabby, the deepest lake on Fraser with a huge sandblow dropping sheer into one side of it.
A little farther north are the scenic highlights of Eli Creek, which pours a million gallons an hour of freshwater into the ocean. The swimming is incredible.
Then the Maheno, the wreck of a luxury liner beached in 1935; and The Cathedrals, magnificent cliffs of coloured sands, hewn by wind into turrets and spires.
Tracks inland all along the beach lead to huge sanblows, with Aboriginal springs and streams.
The surf beach, the island's north-south highway, leads then to three rock headlands; Indian Head, Middle Rock and Waddy Point, around which the sand has collected over 800,000 years to form this natural wonderland.
