'Perched' on a layer of solid leaf matter Lake McKenzie deserves to be recognised as one of the best beaches in the world, with stunningly fine white, stone-free sand and warm, clear, pure freshwater to bathe in. The weather is warm, the location is totally natural, the water contains no killer critters and the sand entertains no coral lumps. Even the dingoes are friendly, trotting down the beach for a drink and to check out the visitors and their backpacks.
Lake McKenzie's main drawback is that you need first to get to Fraser Island, then drive at least half an hour on a sand track to reach the place. Still, compared to Whitehaven Beach access is easy and cheap.
