Ten glorious days on the beautiful island of K’gari (Fraser Island)
One Tree Island is part of the Great Barrier Reef. With over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching over 2,300 Kilometres, the Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef system. One Tree Island is one of only two ‘no-entry scientific zones’ on the Great Barrier Reef. Unauthorised boats entering this area receive heavy penalties.

Lizard Island is a granite island about 10 square kilometres in size, with three smaller islands nearby (Palfrey, South and Bird). Together these islands form the Lizard Island Group and their well-developed fringing reef encircles the 10-metre (33 ft) deep Blue Lagoon. Wikipedia
