Fraser Island

After Noosa I travelled via Rainbow Beach to Hervey Bay.
In Rainbow Beach I had a walk to the Carlo Sandblow which is a sand dune in the middle of the cooloola national park (forest). That was very fascinating and the the water close to the dune was the most amazing and the clearest I've ever seen. So beautiful!


From Hervey Bay I did a tour to the Fraser Island which is the biggest sand island of the world. We've been 25 people and one funny tour guide from Austria.
The first day we drove along the 75 miles beach to a few Viewpoints etc. All the driving on the island was really funny because it was so bouncy everywhere, there's no proper road only sand roads or the beach. The second day we started pretty early so that we were able to see the sunrise which was simply amazing. After that we explored Lake Wabby and Lake Mckenzie. The first one is in a great location. After a walk trough a forest and a hike over the sand dune, in the middle of nowhere was the peaceful lake. We relaxed there for a bit before we've been to Lake Mckenzie which has incredibly clear and clean water. It felt like being in a swimming pool. In the end of our trip we finally saw a dingo as well. Dingos are wild dogs and they're famous for this island. I had a great time there!

Now I'm back in Hervey Bay and today I'll go to Agnes Water/Town of 1770. There I'll finally have a surf lesson. I'll tell you about it next week I guess.
