Itinerary

1 Day Fraser Island Tour Depart Rainbow Beach Itinerary

One of the best gateways to K’gari is from Rainbow Beach. We’ll be leaving early in the morning because it’s going to be a long, but unforgettable day. Board the ferry that will take you and the awesome 4WD bus to Fraser Island. Enjoy the scenic journey across the Great Sandy Strait.

Once you reach K’gari, you’ll be transferred back to the airconditioned bus to start your Fraser Island adventure! You’ll be seeing a lot today, from wildlife to beaches. We’ll be stopping at Lake McKenzie, one of the most picturesque destinations on the island. Take a refreshing swim in the stunning freshwater lake or just relax on the white sandy beach.

At Central Station, once a place for loggers, we’ll go for a stroll along the Wanggoolba Creek boardwalk. Explore ancient trees like King Ferns and the diverse plant species. Another beautiful walk is through the Pile Valley subtropical rainforest, with centuries-old Satinay trees.

We’ll be driving along 75 Mile Beach Highway. You might want to keep an eye on all the wildlife that comes along including dingoes and during the winter months you may even see some Humpback Wales popping out of the water. Another stop on our 1 day tour is Eli Creek. Float down this impressive creek with lush trees.

Eventually, we’ll make our way to the Maheno shipwreck – the iconic rusty shipwreck and the Pinnacles Coloured Sands, which has around 72 shades of red, orange and yellow. You’ll be back around 6pm in Rainbow Beach.
