Fraser Island Tours
in Australia is one of those places where you can spend some days of your
vacation if you are visiting Australia during the coming holidays. Known to be
the largest sand island in the world this world heritage listed place is just
perfect for fun, adventure and excitement. Spread across an area of around 1,
840 square kilometres you will find it to be a study in contrasts. As the name
suggests the terrain is totally sandy but then you will come across abundance
of vegetation, rainforests growing on sand dunes and as many as one hundred
fresh water lakes which make it perfect for the growth of flora and fauna. Part
of the Great Sandy National Park this place has been well preserved and till
now justifies the name K’gari or paradise given to it by the ancient Butchulla
people who happens to be the earliest known occupants of the place. The history
of this place is as fascinating as the place itself. Initially it was
discovered by Captain James Cook who sailed by the island in 1770 and later
Matthew Flinders landed in the year 1802. Though for sometime it came to be
known as the Great Sandy Island it came to be known as Fraser Island after the
stories of a shipwreck survivor Eliza Fraser became famous.
