🎧  Listen to Introduction

Fraser Island is located off the east coast of Australia. At 122 km long, it is the largest sand island in the world. There are remnants of tall rainforest growing on the sand, and half of the world's freshwater dune lakes are located inland from the beach. The combination of moving dunes, rainforest and lakes makes this a unique attraction.
