The world's largest sand island
A UNESCO wonder off Queensland (K'gari) — the largest sand island on Earth, with rainforest growing on dunes, crystal-clear freshwater lakes, a coloured-sand beach highway, and dingoes.
Signature local dishes worth seeking out.
A 4x4 is essential (no sealed roads); ferry from Hervey Bay.
Swim in the pure silica sands of Lake McKenzie — it's rain-fed and dazzlingly clear.
Generally safe — exercise normal travel awareness.
None — remote eco-lodge and campfire calm.
