Things To Do Fraser Island, Fraser Coast, Queensland
Historical Sites and Heritage Locations
The Maheno, the most famous of the Fraser Island wrecks, was driven ashore just north of Happy Valley during a cyclone in 1935. Once a well-known trans-Tasman liner, the Maheno was bound for a Japanese wrecking yard when she met her stormy end. Today the hull lies slowly deteriorating in the harsh salt environment, about 10 kilometres north of Happy Valley.
The Maheno is a great piece of Australian history and is a must see for those visiting Fraser Island.
