Fraser
Island Environment
Together let us treat World Heritage Fraser Island with
care and respect.
Protect Native Animals
Feeding, touching or approaching native animals can alter their patterns
of behaviour, endangering them or yourself. No domestic animals are
permitted on the island.
Be Forest
Friendly
Show care for plants and trees. No plants can be removed from the
island or introduced to the island. Observe fire bans. Use fuel
stoves in preference
to burning island firewood. Use fireplaces and firewood provided.
Only light fires in areas clear of vegetation. Campfires can quickly
become
wild fires so never leave fires unattended and extinguish all fires
when finished
Remove
Rubbish
Litter is unattractive and harmful to wildlife. Dispose of all
rubbish correctly, recycle where possible, use bins provided
on the island
or return refuse to the mainland. Don't bury rubbish.
Keep lakes and creeks clean by refraining from applying sun screen or insect repellent until after swimming. The chemicals may alter water quality making it unfavourable to its inhabitants.
Keep
On The Track
To avoid damaging fragile flora and fauna please keep to walking tracks and
boardwalks.
Only drive 4WD vehicles and keep to the designated roads and tracks to avoid erosion.
Drive carefully adhering to normal road rules. Keep to the speed limits, 80km/h on the beach and 35km/h on the inland roads.
Careful
Camping
Camp at designated campsites. Be considerate of others. Leave your campsite
clean. Avoid digging trenches around tents.
Respect
Fraser Island's Heritage
The island contains many significant spiritual and cultural heritage sites.
Avoid behaviour that is damaging or offensive.
