Fraser Island!!
....if you are in australia - and travelling up (or down) the eastcoast, be sure to have 3 or even 5 days time for fraser island!!! its situated between brisbane and cairns.
this island has really everything you can imagine!
driving with 60mph on the beach!!!
it's said to be the largest island made of sand in the world. best thing to do is to take the barge to the island an drive there with your 4wd (if you dont have one - u can rent them in harvey bay). barges leave from rainbow beach and harvey bay. it's an island that provides everything - lakes, rainforest, dunes, shipwrecks, .... i stayed there for 4 days. it's a good place and chance to get your 4wd to know. ;-)
if you don't want to hire or buy a car, there are also a lot of tours offered to explore the island.
only 4wd are allowed to access the island - but if you dont have your own, you can rent them in hervey bay or rainbow beach.
as whole fraser island is a national park (and a world heritage area), you have to get a permission to drive there. permits are sold in harvey bay and rainbow beach. - and bring all your food with you, as shopping in the small stores on the island is very expensive and not everything you might need is sold there.
if you are afraid of driving on your own, there are a lot of tours (eg. 3 day fraser island safaris )offered also!
