Our Fraser Island adventure continues, and this one gets far too close for comfort.
After putting the vehicles through water crossings, rocky tracks and plenty of soft sand punishment, the crew heads back onto the beach. But with the tide rapidly closing in and nowhere left to go, what started as another day exploring K’gari quickly becomes one of the most confronting 4WD moments Reuben has ever experienced.
It’s a stark reminder that conditions on the island can change quickly. Always plan your journey around the tides, allow more time than you think you’ll need and never underestimate how fast the beach can disappear.
Plenty of action, friendly rivalry, questionable decisions and lessons learned the hard way, welcome to Fraser Island Part 2. Let us know in the comments: what would you have done in this situation?
