There’s no doubt about it, Fraser Island is one of my favourite off-road destinations of all time. Apart from it being a sensational island escape, Fraser is so appealing to many because it is the perfect destination for novice 4WDers. Just by letting your tyres down to around 20PSI, you will find that even a basic stock-standard 4WD will let you get anywhere on this massive sand Island. My suggestion is to camp a few nights on the eastern side on the beach and from there take in many of the hotspots like Lake Mackenzie, Eli Creek, the Maheno Wreck and Lake Wabby. From there, head north and either camp at Orchid Beach or at Sandy Cape and see the Champagne Pools and Sandy Cape Lighthouse, while you’re, are relaxing up here and finish your trip off by camping on a secluded campsite on the western side of the island. My pick of the crop is Coongul Creek; even in the busy school holiday periods, you can get away from the crowds and have some of the best coastal camping in the country all to yourself.
