YOUR LOCATION AND HOW TO GET THERE
Fraser Island, off the east coast of Queensland Australia, has some of the world’s last remaining sub-tropical rainforests, and is the largest sand island in the world. This is where ‘Marloo Blue’ is situated.
Being World Heritage listed, most of the island is National Park. The island can only be accessed by 4WD vehicles, which made building a large house like ‘Marloo Blue’ a mammoth task, with all the materials having to be ordered on the mainland, trucked to near-by Rainbow Beach, ferried across to Hook Point at the most southern end of Fraser Island, then transported bit by bit on 4WD trucks up the beach.
