Fraser Island

On one of those 'get a bargain web pages' we found a special offer for the beautiful Resort on Fraser Island - Kingfisher Bay. Fraser Island is the biggest sand island in the world. about 100km long and 30km to 50km wide. The entire Island is National Park - Great Sandy National Park.

Last week did take some days off and went for a short trip to Fraser.Usually we are not that kind of people spending time in a posh hotel or resort but this time we just wanted to indulge a bit. ... and we loved it.

It was just great. When we arrived at River Heads south of Hervey Bay we could easily check in all our stuff and a coach picked us up and drove us down to the ferry ... and about 45 minutes later we were on that great sand island.
At the moment there is off peak season so it was not busy at all. That helped a lot ... we did not need to book any restaurants or even had any trouble to find a free spot at the pool area.
We also did a couple of walking tracks near the resort and just relaxed the rest of the time. Unfortunately the time went by too fast and all of the sudden the four days were over. I am sure it was not the last time we visited that beautiful piece of earth. I reckon next time we will hire a 4x4 and going camping or we might end up there  for a field trip again.
