My Fraser Trip!!!
I think everyone who has been to Fraser on Nomads 3day/2 night safari will agree that is an awesome experience. Mine was no exception 
Me and some of the other girls, who also work at Nomads Hervey Bay backpackers hostel, decided that we would have a girly trip to Fraser, that meant leaving all the boyfriends at home and setting us loose on the island with a huge 4×4, and with my driving skills we were faced with a potentially recipe for disaster.
We were all filled with excitment the before our trip how many warm jumpers to pack and most importantly how much goon we needed We had a briefing the evening before which told us all about our trip, couldn’t wait!!
On arrivial on fraser we visited Lake Mackenzie, Lake Wabby and Happy Valley all amazing places. Sadly though before we knew it though the day was over and the tide was slightly higher than expected making our onward journey to K’gari campsite impossible uh oh!. We went in June before the new tag along driver Fraser Island tours were part of the tour therefore had the disadvantage of not having the extensive knowledge of the tide times resulting in us being stranded on the beach. Ended up being a lot of fun though and had a right old giggle together.
On our second day we visited the Maheno Ship Wreck, which is the most photographed shipwreck in the world then, follow by a paddle in Eli Creek. The weather was awesome the second day so we spent the whole afternoon sunbathing at the Champagne Pool, my personal favourite part of the island. After that we headed to Indian Head where we got an awesome view of the island and actually spotted some Whales, As Hervey Bay is a world famous whale watching site many its not uncommonn to see them. (Currently there is a special deal for Fraser Island Tours and a whale watching tour).
After watching the sunset on the beach we headed back to the campsite and had a wicked night with all the backpackers (and dingos) chilling and chatting. A very different experience to the first night. The next morning another early start meant we were able to see a lot more of the island before heading back to Nomads Hervey Bay Backpacker Hostel
We had so many stories to tell everyone from the trip, i urge anyone who is debating about whether to go to fraser to go. It was by far one of the biggest highlights of my traveling experience and i guarntee you will LOVE IT!!
