The world's largest sand island was the sight of today's frivolities for the adventurous crew. After dropping into the Hervey Bay visitor centre yesterday afternoon and asking for the most family-friendly-with-four-kids way to visit Fraser Island, I booked us on a half day beach & barbecue cruise aboard the Whale Song MV.We cruised over to Fraser Island with six other people, spotting a few turtles along the way, and spent a blissful few hours on a deserted stretch of beach. And frivolity really was the name of the game, the cruise provided so many activities for us to do:
Beachcombing - our best shell collection so far!
Fishing - Lukas caught a bream and a whiting and Dylan caught a sparrow tail, our most successful fishing in all of Australia!
Kayaking - the big boys did laps up and down the beach.
Sandcastles - in beautifully soft white sand.
Footy - with a supplied ball and a rugby-fan skipper who was happy to talk about the Super XV all day.
Followed by a yummy barbecue and salads for lunch. And then the kids each had a turn driving the boat back to Hervey Bay.
It was a quick trip to Fraser Island, but a super fun one!
