4. Bargara<br />

A small town on the Coral Coast with a huge reputation<br />

for beautiful beaches, spectacular seafood, and<br />

stunning Lady Elliot Island, Bargara is a must-see when<br />

you’re in Queensland. The beachfront esplanade is a<br />

relaxed place to spend some time in the sun, with plenty<br />

of cafés and good coffee to drink while you watch the<br />

sun come up over the ocean in the morning. You can<br />

even learn about local loggerhead turtles in the Mon<br />

Repos Turtle Centre, if that’s your sort of thing.<br />

5. Fraser Island<br />

Just across the water from Bargara is the UNESCO<br />

world heritage site of Fraser Island. Inhabited for<br />

more than 5,000 years, this incredible sand island is<br />

otherwise known as K’gari, or Paradise. Packed full of a<br />

rainforest, mangroves, and surrounded by crystal-clear<br />

waters, it’s the perfect place for a tour. You can swim<br />

in a natural lake that’s filled with tea tree oil, race along<br />

wide sandy beaches, or camp out under the stars on<br />

your unforgettable Australian adventure.<br />
