Experience the untouched, unique side of the world's largest sand island on a K'gari (Fraser Island) Remote Experience with Tasman Ventures! This exclusive day tour runs a completely different itinerary from most island tours so you can escape the crowds and find hidden gems of this pristine island near Hervey Bay.

With Tasman Venture, you'll travel to K'gari (Fraser Island) on an amphibious watercraft that can bring you right up to shore, meaning you won't have to deal with the crowds of a ferry terminal. Spend the day bushwalking, swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, and paddleboarding at the island's more secluded beaches and rainforests. If you book during the winter months you might even get to see whales!
