Fraser Island 4x4 Day Tour - Brisbane or Surfers Paradise
For those with limited time, this tour provides the opportunity to see the natural beauty of Fraser Island's famous landmarks. The world's largest sand island, Fraser Island is an area of remarkable natural beauty. It was listed as a World Heritage Area in 1992. The listing recognizes the island's internationally significant natural features:
* evolving dune, lake, soil and forest systems, the extent and age of which are outstanding examples of ongoing geological and biological processes;
* unique landscapes, which are examples of superlative natural occurrences.
Growing on seemingly infertile sands is a great variety of plant communities ranging from coastal heath, mangrove forests and swamps to subtropical rainforest.
The many archaeological remains on Fraser Island record thousands of years of culture and tradition, providing important links for the Butchulla people of today to their past.
The island is 123km long and covers an area of 166,038ha, so you will need to allow plenty of time to explore and appreciate it.
Trip Itinerary:
* Traveling north from Brisbane we pass the Glass House Mountains, inland from the Sunshine Coast, passing the gold mining town of Gympie before arriving at Rainbow Beach. From Rainbow Beach we take the 4WD bus on to the beach to meet our ferry at Inskip Point, where a short ferry ride will take us to the southern tip of Fraser Island.
* Driving along Seventy Five Mile Beach we pass Eurong Beach Resort on our way to explore some of Fraser Island's rainforests and Freshwater lakes.
* Our first stop is Lake Birrabeen, one of Fraser Island's beautiful crystal clear lakes. Take a swim in its pristine waters or stroll on the white sandy beaches.
* Our next stop is Central Station to visit Fraser Island's lush subtropical rainforests. We take a fantastic 1 hour walk along the crystal clear flowing waters of Wanggoolba Creek and see the remnants of the now ceased logging industry for which Fraser Island was famous.
* Take in the Giant Satinay trees and learn more about the history of these magnificent towering trees.
* Tour back through the sandy tracks lined by towering rainforest to the beach.
