Top 15 Things To In Queensland
What to do in Queensland?
11 (3) Do Nothing at Daintree / Cape Tribulation

Breath it in, soak it up. Go for a quiet walk along the beach do
anything so long as it’s not much and not rushed. This your
holiday, your time, take it slow and to your own agenda. Paradise
will be lost to you if you don’t slow down long enough to
see it.
Spiritual Daintree
Take time out to truly see and experience the almost spiritual
feel to the Daintree and Cape Tribulation. It will be one of the
memories you walk away with.
Daintree Love
If you can - stay awhile. However, do not fall in love with the
Daintree. The pain of catching the ferry for the last time will
break your heart. The ferry master has little time for emotional
tourists. Still, you can always come back.

What
a day for a Whitsunday Daydream
Daydream Island Resort and Spa, one of the premier resorts in the
Whitsunday Islands, invites you to come and enjoy the many attractions
of this fantastic island.
Daydream Village at the southern end of the island has been especially
developed with day visitors in mind. It has all the facilities of
an island resort and then some! Set around the swimming pool is
a bakery, water sports& dive shop and souvenir boutique. There
are tennis courts, a children's playground and the fantastic 'Living
Reef' Coral Lagoon filled with colourful coral and fish life.
There's lots of room to laze away the day pool side, on the lawns
or adjacent beach. Take a swim, stroll along Sunset Beach or see
wallabies and endless bird-life on the rainforest walk. The 'Around
Australia' mini-golf course has to be the best in the world - definitely
not just for the kids!
At lunchtime, wander along to the Resort area and enjoy lunch poolside
at Mermaids Restaurant.

13 (41) Fraser Island
At 123 kilometres long, 240 metres high and 184 000 hectares in
size Fraser Island is the biggest sand island you will ever see.
World Heritage listed Fraser Island
World Heritage listed Fraser Island is much loved by locals and
visitors alike. Fraser Island's Dingo population are less popular.
Please admire from a distance as these doggies most definitely bite.
Fraser Island - 100 freshwater lakes
Now I have scared you off, you will find Fraser island is a place
of exceptional beauty, with uninterrupted white sandy beaches flanked
by distinctly coloured sand cliffs. Fraser island boasts over 100
freshwater lakes, some are tea-coloured whilst others are clear
and blue and exquisite to swim in. Most of Fraser Island’s
lakes are ringed by white sandy beaches.
Fraser Island Rainforest
Fraser Island’s ancient rainforests grow in sand along the
banks of fast-flowing, crystal-clear creeks. The magnificent wildflower
bloom in spring and summer adding to the islands colour and vibrancy.
Great Sandy Strait
The Great Sandy Strait, separating Fraser Island from the mainland,
is an important wetlands area. Among the 40,000 migratory shorebirds
the wetlands are home to rare and endangered species such as Dugongs.
How Long should you stay on Fraser Island?
A single day will not be enough to get the most out of Fraser Island
but understand if you have no choice (I just pity you). Two or three
days will probably do it unless you love camping and can afford
the time.
Stay a-while Fraser Island, Queensland
The reality is you probably should sell everything you own and
stay in Queensland for as long as you physically can but it would
be irresponsible to suggest any such thing so don’t do it
(but I know the feeling)
Visit Fraser Island
One
of Fraser Island's Stunning Lakes
If you want to visit Fraser Island you would be advised to overnight
to make the most of your stay. A tour will help to ensure you see
the best bits.
On route you'll see the Glass House Mountains and Sunshine Coast
before arriving at Rainbow Beach. On Fraser Island itself you will
experience 75 Mile Beach and Eli Creek. The lovely board walk to
the top of the creek will stick in your memory almost as much as
floating down this picturesque stream.
After that you will walk through a lush coastal eucalypt forest
which opens out to the deepest lake on Fraser Island, the famous
Lake Wabby. The return walk takes us through the Hammerstone Sandblow.
You also get to appreciate the Eurong Beach Resort, lush subtropical
rainforests, the clear flowing waters of Wanggoolba Creek. For me
the highlight is Lake Birrabean, one of Fraser Islands Beautiful
crystal clear lakes. The clear Fraser Island lakes have to be seen
to be believed.
