DAY 1 & 2
Choose and book your 35 minute scenic flight from Hervey Bay to Lady Elliot Island.
Luggage restrictions for airline flight at 10kg per person. Excess baggage can be stored at Hervey Bay Airport.

Discover Lady Elliot Island, an idyllic natural environment surrounded by a pristine coral lagoon. Step straight from the beach into one of the best snorkelling and diving locations on the Great Barrier Reef. Swim in the coral gardens, go reef walking and get up close and personal with colourful marine life, turtles and manta rays. Lady Elliot Island provides the opportunity for beginners to dive within a sheltered coral cay environment and for the more experienced, there are numerous world class dive sites to explore. Unwind at night with a cool drink and watch the sunset across the coral lagoon.

Includes 2 nights accommodation, 2 x breakfast and 2 x dinners.

DAY 3
Choose and book your fastcat departure time from Hervey Bay - the Kingfisher Catamaran has four return services each day... our airport shuttle bus will be there to pick you up from the Fraser Coast Airport on your return from Lady Elliot Island.

After a 45 minute cruise to Fraser Island, arrive at Kingfisher Bay to check in to your Wilderness Lodge accommodation. Relax or explore the resort, then enjoy a buffet dinner at the Dingo Bar and a comfy night's rest before the adventure begins. There's a regular shuttle service between the lodges and resort - check transfer times with resort reception.

Includes dinner.

DAY 4
Enjoy a little sleep in and big buffet breakfast, then meet your Cool Dingo ranger-guide at the Jetty Hut at 9.30am (when the other Cool Dingo passengers arrive from the 8.45am catamaran). After the introductions and a quick briefing, your 4WD adventure begins!

Your guide is a true Fraser guru and will not only take you to the island's most incredible spots, but also wow you with fascinating facts about the island's history, fauna and flora. Keep an eye out for dingoes! Your guide stays with you for the entire tour - we guarantee a fun and entertaining time or the cool dingo eats his hat! Today we check out some of Fraser's coolest inland sights.

Basin Lake - first stop is beautiful Basin Lake - get up close and personal with the resident freshwater turtles!

Central Station - no trains or whistles here - just peaceful, ancient rainforest and the reminders of a former, once bustling logging camp.

Wanggoolba Creek - walk along the banks of this silent flowing creek with lush green rainforest and rare king ferns... just breathtaking.

Pile Valley - check out the towering satinay trees in this rich forest... real giants!

Lake McKenzie - with its white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters, picture perfect Lake McKenzie is even prettier than the postcards. Enjoy a refreshing afternoon swim before heading back to Kingfisher Bay.

Includes buffet breakfast, picnic lunch and buffet dinner.

DAY 5
An early start to explore Seventy-Five Mile Beach, the world's most amazing beach highway.

Eli Creek - a great spot for a refreshing dip! Float down this fast-flowing freshwater creek which pours out 80 megalitres of water daily.

Maheno Shipwreck - washed ashore during a cyclone in 1935, this rusting wreck is one of Fraser's essential photo stops.

Coloured Sands - With all the colours of the rainbow (well just the reds really) these vibrant sand cliffs are another favourite photo stop.

Indian Head - climb to the top of this rocky headland for awesome beach and ocean views... look out for sharks, rays and humpback whales (Jul - Nov).

Champagne Pools - chill out in these bubbling ocean rock pools, you won't want to leave!

Air Fraser offers spectacular scenic flights over the island - book with your guide on tour (extra cost applies).

Includes buffet breakfast, picnic lunch and buffet dinner.

DAY 6
After spending an extra night on Fraser to rejuvenate, wake up to a great buffet breakfast before your return to Hervey Bay (see catamaran departure times above). The day is yours to seek out some action or just relax...

Includes buffet breakfast.
