Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, K’gari is a sand island and entirely 4WD access only.
You’ll need a high-clearance 4WD vehicle to reach Orchid Beach and Woods on K’gari.

If you're hiring a 4WD, be sure to check if the company allows travel to Orchid Beach. Some hire companies place restrictions. We recommend Wongai 4WD Hire, which has depots in Brisbane, Hervey Bay, and Rainbow Beach, and permits vehicles to travel to Orchid Beach.

🕒 Travel time is approximately 2 hours from either Rainbow Beach (via Inskip Point ferry) or Kingfisher Resort on the western side. For the safest travel, we strongly recommend planning your beach drive around low tide.
