Fraser Island is the biggest sand island in the world and listed as a World Heritage site. Use our campground as your home-base and delight in the lakes, unique rainforest that grows on sand, extraordinary, coloured sand cliffs, rock pools, dunes, beach walking, and incomparable natural beauty.
Our campgrounds provide designated fire-rings, so build a fire and enjoy the sounds and warmth while staring into the flames. Feel free to bring your own fire-pit if it catches coals.

Aim to travel two hours either side of low tide wherever possible. Ensure you are not driving on the beach two hours either side of high tide.
It is recommended that you reduce tyre pressure before you get to Fraser Island. This is even more important if you are towing (don’t forget to reduce your trailer/caravan tyre pressures too!) If you are an inexperienced driver or towing a trailer or caravan, we recommend taking the Mantaray barge out of Rainbow Beach to avoid the need to take an inland track. Generally, the eastern beach route will be a smoother journey. During dry weather the sand at Inskip Point can become very soft and vehicles can easily get bogged getting on and off the barge.

In an emergency, dial 000. If you don’t have mobile reception try 112. Help can be hours away, so carry a well-stocked first aid kit and medical supplies.
