From World Heritage listed natural wonders to unique encounters with one of the largest mammals in the world, the Fraser Coast is a diverse region perfect for a laid-back holiday with a twist of adventure.

Explore the largest sand island in the world, Fraser Island. Let down the tyres and discover off-road 4wding as you cruise along 75 Mile Beach or head inland to enjoy a dip in one of the pristine freshwater lakes, creeks and rock pools.

  • From July to November Hervey Bay is the home to the Humpback Whale. Frolic with these gentle giants as they play in the sheltered bay and show off their breaching skills.
  • Hand feeding dolphins at Tin Can Bay is a must, or step back in time and explore Maryborough which is scattered with colonial buildings, historic pubs and museums.
