• An Island Paradise of Sand
    Awake!—2006 | March

    • The waters around Fraser Island also swarm with life, including humpback whales en route from the icy Antarctic to the Great Barrier Reef, where they calve and mate. On their return journey, the whales put on a spectacular show by launching their great bulk into the air and crashing down in an explosion of spray that can be seen for miles​—a truly majestic salute to an amazing island!
