Champagne Pools, Queensland, Australia
4.5 (209 reviews) Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #5 in Fraser Coast Bodies of Water
Favourite place on the island
Champagne pools was my fav stop on the island. A little bit of a walk to get down to them, but well worth it. Best visited at high tide when there is more water in them. Basically, swimming in the ocean on the east side of Fraser Island is not a good idea because of sharks. Champagne pools is a safe swimming spot, as it is surrounded by rock, and the water from the waves splashing over gets trapped in there. It doesn't get too deep, my 8yr old could stand in most parts of the pools, and it is sheltered. On our way down the steps of the board walk we also spotted a couple of whales playing just offshore.

Stunning
The beautiful place is a must for visitors to Fraser Island. There is a walk from the car park along a boardwalk with spectacular views all the way to the pools. The pools are filled by the sea water crashing over the rocks.....so very beautiful!

Worth the drive
Took 3 hours to drive here from Kingfisher Bay Resort - but it was worth it. My favourite place on Fraser Island. Good parking area with modern well maintained toilet/change rooms. Then a short walk along a well maintained boardwalk and down to the most beautiful beach. There were quite a few stairs if that is a concern. It was overcast and drizzling when we were there but the sea was still warm so we had a dip. If it was hot and sunny you'd need a sun shade because there is no sun protection at the beach. The massive waves crash over the rocks and filter like champagne bubbles into the massive rock pool. Beautiful place.
