\"Fraser<\/p>\n

Off the east coast of Queensland, Australia, you’ll find Fraser Island, a stunning place that’s 120 km long and 24 km wide with a small community of about 360 people. Known as a lost paradise, it’s also the largest sand island globally and boasts the highest concentration of lakes in Australia outside of Tasmania. For the past 20 years, it has been protected by UNESCO.<\/p>\n

Fraser Island is famed for its amazing natural beauty. It features towering sand dunes, lush rainforests, and over 100 crystal-clear lakes, some of the purest in the world. Lake McKenzie is one of the most stunning lakes, spanning 150 hectares and being just over 5 feet deep. Its beach is made up of almost pure silica. You’ll also find various gardens, plants, and animals like the Dingo, giving you a glimpse of what many consider paradise.<\/p>\n

Today, Fraser Island is a designated nature park with strict rules to preserve its beauty. You can reach the island by taking a ferry from River Heads or a charter flight from Sunshine Coast Airport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
