Fraser Island, the biggest sand island in the world located off Australia’s Queensland Coast and stretching for more than 122km, will celebrate its 25th anniversary of UNESCO World Heritage Listing over the next year.
With rainforests growing out of the sand, ancient dune systems and coloured sand cliffs still evolving, as well as being home to half of the world’s freshwater dune lakes including the iconic Lake McKenzie and Lake Wabby, Fraser Island is the perfect destination for 2018 and beyond as it celebrates this important milestone.
The island is now a world-class tourist attraction, and often hailed as one of the most beautiful places on the planet. Thanks to its World Heritage status K’gari – which literally translated means paradise – will remain a paradise forever. Visitors who travel to the island can witness the exceptional natural beauty for themselves with a number of panoramic viewpoints including Indian Head and the Cathedrals.
