Fraser Day Tour ex-Hervey Bay
Your guide is a Fraser Island expert with local knowledge and a passion for the island. On this
adventurous day out, you’ll drive across sand tracks to explore some of the most beautiful, natural
spots and listen to fascinating facts about the island’s history, fauna and flora. Our custom designed
4WD buses are airconditioned for your comfort and fitted with panoramic windows.
Central Station – a 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 clear blue waters and relax on the sandy
white beaches… it’s picture perfect!
75 Mile Beach – as you drive along this golden beach 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 refreshing 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 radiant sand formations were created and the
Butchulla Dreamtime story surrounding them. Stop to take a picture as we drive along Seventy-Five
Mile Beach.
At the end of the day, board the 5.00 pm ferry back to River Heads where our shuttle service will take
you back to your accommodation or transit centre (drop-off between 6.00pm and 7.00pm).
