Fraser Coast and coral coast

Transcription

1 Fraser Coast and Coral Coast Fraser Island is one of those places people keep talking about long after they ve left. It s probably the beauty of Seventy Five Mile Beach, the pristine sand-based rainforests, crystal clear lakes and creeks, and the world-class fishing. Across the ocean is Hervey Bay, a friendly coastal town that welcomes visitors with its calm beaches. Majestic Humpback whales can be spotted from August to November. If you re visiting Fraser, make Hervey Bay your first port of call. Who said sand had to be white to be beautiful? At Rainbow Beach, it s colourful, and this stretch of coastline has seemingly deserted beaches that attract 4WD enthusiasts. Pack your bags and your sea legs for an adventure to Bargara, where you can visit the Mon Repos Conservation Park. Turtles are the big drawcard here, nesting and hatching before your eyes from November to March. Bargara has a series of rocky coves that protect the sandy beaches, perfect for a peaceful swim. A mere 15 minutes drive away is Bundaberg, home of the Bundaberg Rum Bondstore, Bundaberg Ginger Beer, and the Hinkler Hall of Aviation. An untouched paradise awaits you at Town of 1770 and Agnes Water, where easy access to the Great Barrier Reef is granted, and rugged coastline demands your appreciation. These country towns by the sea are tranquil, with still water and surf beaches and fantastic fishing.
