K'GARI (Fraser Island) WEST COAST PARADISE

This is the K'gari (Fraser Island) we never knew existed , and what a place it is. You would be hard pressed to find better beach camping than this. Not only was it paradise, the local wildlife was putting on a show like nothing I've seen before with up to at least a dozen whales at once right out the front of camp. This is an adventure I will never forget and feel very thankful we were able to experience this incredible place. We will be back!

    We got bogged also on the eastern side. To be honest it was mainly me not being on the ball. And could have possibly lowered tire pressures further. But yes a lighter van is always going to make it easier. 👍🏼
