Fraser Island is famous for its stunning natural landscape, relaxed atmosphere and abundance of wildlife, including whales and dingoes. Typical Fraser Island accommodation is a light and breezy beach-style home. Many holiday homes on the island have verandas, ideal for enjoying the warm Australian weather and the salty sea breeze.
Fresh fish dominates the dining scene
As Fraser Island is a fishing hotspot, the local cuisine heavily emphasises fish. Travellers can find fine dining options in the island’s Kingfisher Bay Resort, or head to the Jetty Hut for a more casual atmosphere and a panoramic view of the Great Sandy Strait.
Staying in a holiday home also gives visitors the option to prepare their own freshly-caught seafood back at their Fraser Island accommodation.
Fraser’s stunning natural wonders
Fraser Island’s natural environment makes it one of Australia’s top holiday destinations. The island is famous for being bordered by its pristine, white-sand beaches, perfect for swimming relaxing, or for the more adventurous traveller, hiking.
Visitors can also consider hiring a four wheel drive vehicle, or boarding a tour bus and heading out to Maheno Wreck, along 75 Mile Beach. The rusted hull of the old ship contrasts against the pure white sand, creating a stunning image. Fraser Island also boasts Lake McKenzie, a secluded freshwater lake, with water as clear as glass. Visit at dawn or dusk to see the striking colours reflected vividly in the lake.
Whale-watching on Fraser Island
Whale migration season in the Hervey Bay area is from August to October, and visitors to Fraser Island have front-row seats to the majestic spectacle. Breaching whales can be seen from the beach, or from the veranda of those lucky enough to find holiday homes with an ocean view. Travellers can also try boat cruises for an up-close experience. The sheer size and majesty of the creatures will take your breath away.
