Welcome to the largest sand island in the world. As you can imagine, it’s pretty hard to see everything without a set of wheels! So, do you really need a 4WD to explore Fraser Island?
But if you don’t own a car, there are a heap of different 4WD tour options to choose from.
Why you should do a tour
If you’re just touring Australia on your holiday, the chances are you won’t own a car!
However, a car is one of the best ways to see the country. Doing a tour means you won’t have to worry about insurance – after all, the added costs can be expensive!
Fraser Island is a big island: Whether you choose to do a tour or you’re driving yourself, you’ll need to travel around in a vehicle on Fraser Island.
We might be biased, but we think it’s way better to jump on a tour! We recommend the best way to see Fraser Island is to do a tour! Doing a tour means you don’t have to think about hiring a car. Simply arrive at the island, and hire your own 4WD!
Drive your 4WD
Doing a tour means you can kick back, relax and enjoy the magic of Fraser Island and its beauty. When you’re driving, you must keep your eyes focused!
Tour, drive, zoom down 75-mile beach. Drive along the shoreline for a spectacular view of the flat dunes and explore some gorgeous expanses of beach.
75-mile Beach is a highway, and the road rules are still in play.
Taking a car to Fraser Island isn’t a necessity, but it’s certainly helpful…It’s the largest sand island in the world, but we’d recommend seeing the island on a tour if you don’t have access to your vehicle!
Your options if you don’t have a car:
- Book onto a tour
- Hire a 4WD
If you want to explore off the beaten track of K’gari, then travelling via 4WD is needed to tackle the bumpy road conditions.
Hire your 4WD or take a tour!
If you do have a 4WD, then exploring Fraser Island is like one big obstacle course. The dirt tracks are bumpy, the dunes are vast and long, offering large tracks – and the adventure is strong!
Drive yourself or get a driving lesson on how to drive a 4WD across the sand! Take the adventure of a lifetime with this unique trip!
The island is very big! For example, if you want to drive the 75 Mile Beach, it’s very long and you’d have to drive! Whether you join a tour, you hire a car, or you have your own set of wheels, you’ll have to be on wheels to get around the island.
