Wake up with the sand at your feet and the sun on your face in some of the most rugged and beautiful wilderness in Australia - K'gari is a camper’s paradise! Adventure awaits you at every turn on this iconic island and one of the best ways to experience K'gari in all its glory is to hire a 4wd to explore by day and set up camp under the stars at night.
There are 45 QPWS campsites provided for public use on K’gari (K'gari) and locations vary from pristine beach to bush camping. If you are travelling with children under 14 years old it is important to consider dingo safety and it is recommended that you choose a campsite with a dingo fence such as Central Station, Dundubara, Waddy Point or Lake Boomanjin.
Camping permits are required for all QPWS campsites and must be purchased before setting up camp on K'gari. This means you will need to plan the date(s) you will be at your campsite(s) of choice and book before you arrive as mobile phone coverage is limited on the Island. Camping permits are $6.65 per adult per night and can be purchased online, by phone (13QGOV) or through one of the 52 booking offices on the mainland.
If you would rather avoid the hassle and let someone else take care of the planning for you, there are options for 4wd hire with camping permits included. These camping packages allow you the freedom to explore K'gari during the day before making your way to a pre-booked campsite each night.
Choose whether you spend 1 or 5 days exploring K'gari in an easy to drive 80 Series Landcruiser. Included with the 4wd hire is your K'gari vehicle access permit, insurance, return barge ticket, campsite and permit and all your camping equipment.
Enjoy a stress-free booking experience with Fraser Dingo 4wd Hire. Simply let the Fraser Dingo Team know your must-see K'gari destinations and they will put together a personalised itinerary for you - they will even take care of your vehicle access permit, K'gari Barge bookings and your camping permits!
Visit all the K'gari hot spots at your own pace with Aussie Trax 4x4 Hire. This package includes everything you will need to enjoy your K'gari adventure including all permits, barge transfers, camping equipment and suggested itineraries and maps - all you need to bring is an overnight bag and food!
Hiring a 4wd is a great way to experience the wonders of K'gari at your own pace. If you do decide to hire a 4wd it is important to plan your days as travel times can vary greatly depending on track conditions. Travellers need to take into account tide times, weather conditions and distances to campsites. Always plan on arriving at your campsite well before dark and take extra care at dawn and dusk when native animals are most active. A little planning goes a long way to a great trip when travelling on K'gari! For more information about camping on K'gari, read on here.
