Last year Cath and I took a week off and popped over to Fraser Island. All I can say is "It's Beautiful" . We had great weather, mostly sunny, but, it did rain of a night. Tides suited us as well, High tide was around 8.30 to 9.00am, so that meant, by the time we got up and going tide was going down, and thru the middle of the day plenty of beach. Enjoy.. We were the only ones on the barge on the trip over and surprisingly the return trip ![]() On the beach just off the barge ![]() Rainbow Gorge, very colourful, we stopped for lunch there, there was a lot of work going on there, I think they were building barriers?? ![]() The Maheno ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Eli Creek, this trip it was running down beach for about 750 metres before turning and going out to sea. Had a nice swim, and walk up the creek. ![]() ![]() An industrious crab at Polyugan Rocks ![]() The rocks themselves ![]() ![]() A dingo by the side of a track just near Waddy Point ![]() Waddy Point and Ocean Beach ![]() ![]() ![]() Champagne Pools ![]() KJ on the tracks ![]() ![]() Looking South down the Beach ![]() Looking North ![]() Red Canyon ![]() View of Lake Wabby from the inland Lookout, Those tiny dots by the water are people. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lake McKenzie, OMG!!!!!!! ![]() Making Tracks back down on the beach ![]() Our Campsite at Cathedral Beach camping ground. ( I highly recommend the place) ![]() The Rainforest walkway at Central Station. ![]() ![]() Bit more inland trekking. ![]() ![]() Now THAT's a BIG TREE!!!! ![]() Coffe rock stains the water in the inlet of Lake Boomajin ![]() ![]() Dang, I can't remember the name of this Wharf, its just south of Kingfisher Bay on the calm side of the Island ![]() Sunset at Kingfisher Bay ![]() Visited by a little friend on the beach at Kingfisher ![]() Leaving, back down the beach, Hook Point, little bit of a beach lake when we were there ![]() ![]() ![]() Back on the barge ![]() By ourselves again. ![]() Great Place I highly recommend that you all visit it if you get the opportunity We'll be back the end of August this Year. All the best cmohr |

Go to Google Earth, zoom to 25 47' 46.8"S, 153 02' 54.88"E and you will see the ferry discharging vehicles on Fraser. The Maheno wreck is at 25 16' 01.48"S, 153 14' 18.2"E |
