Head To Fraser Island This Spring
Spring is in the air and here’s why now is the perfect time to hop over to Fraser Island.
Located on the south Queensland coast, Fraser Island is one of Australia’s most special islands. There are many interesting facts about it, including it being the largest sand island in the world with a flourishing rainforest and a 75-mile beach that is the island’s highway and landing strip. It also
boasts more than 100 freshwater lakes, the most spectacular of which is Lake McKenzie, where the
water turns from clear, to turquoise to ink blue. In the early hours of the morning and evening, you
can also spot dingoes roaming around – great to watch, but don’t get too close!
The abundance of nature on Fraser Island makes spring probably the best time to experience it. It’s
during this time that the wildflower comes out in bloom, the humpback whales make their way back down south, and the temperature starts to pick up but isn’t too hot. During spring, it’s warm enough to swim in the freshwater lakes and camp beneath the stars without getting chilly, but also cool
enough to head into the depths of the rainforest and not sweat through your clothes.
