On 7 June 2023, a ceremony was held on K'gari to celebrate the official name change of the world's largest sand island from its former name, Fraser Island.
In a truly historic act of cultural preservation, The Queensland Government has officially declared that Fraser Island will return to its former, traditional name, K’gari.
The renaming of the world’s largest sand island represents a profound shift towards recognising and honouring the enduring connection the Traditional Owners of K’gari - the Butchulla People - have with country.
Located just off the Fraser Coast, around 300km north of Brisbane, K’gari is a place of unparalleled beauty, gaining UNESCO World Heritage Area status in 1992.
