K'gari (Fraser Island)

You can't take a conventional RV to K'gari, but Hervey Bay is the perfect launching pad. Park your caravan or motorhome at a secure base in town or at River Heads, then jump on a 4WD day tour to experience the island's iconic sand tracks, crystal-clear lakes, and ancient rainforests.
