Hervey Bay is commonly considered the gateway to Fraser Island so it makes perfect sense to start your Fraser adventure from here. Your two day tour begins with a private pick-up from your Hervey Bay accommodation (between 7.00am and 8.00am) or make your own way to our Ticket Hut in River Heads for check-in by 8.00am. Keep your eyes peeled for playful dolphins, turtles or the elusive dugong during your 30 minute cruise across the Great Sandy Marine Park.
Your guide is a Fraser Island expert with local knowledge and a passion for the island. You'll explore some of the most beautiful spots and listen to fascinating facts about the island's history, fauna and flora in airconditioned comfort. Keep an eye out for Fraser's most famous resident - our pure-bred dingos!
Central Station - this former logging station that housed schools and shops for the bustling timber industry is now a tourist stop. Stroll along the Wanggoolba Creek boardwalk to discover the ancient King Ferns, towering Ghost Gums and Pine trees.
Lake McKenzie - enjoy a revitalising swim in the crystal blue waters and relax on the sandy white beaches... it's picture perfect!
Seventy-Five Mile Beach - as you drive along this sandy highway, you may spot birds of prey flying above or humpback whales as they migrate past (between July - November). You may wish to join the Air Fraser team for a scenic flight over the island - book with your guide on tour (optional extra).
Eli Creek - float down this fast-flowing freshwater creek pouring out 80 megalitres of water daily into the ocean.
Maheno Shipwreck - enjoy a photo stop at the rusting wreck of the Maheno washed ashore during an out-of-season cyclone in 1935 - it's one of Fraser Island's most recognisable sites.
The Pinnacles Coloured Sands - learn how these technicolour sand formations were created and the Butchulla legends surrounding them. We stop to take a picture as we drive along Seventy-Five Mile Beach.
At the end of the day, board the 17:00 ferry back to River Heads where our shuttle service will take you back to your accommodation (drop-off between 18:00-19:00).
