    It’s called Double Island POINT. Double Island is a different but real island in FNQ. Why would you compare a point to islands and not include Bribie Island?

    Probably the most accurate examination on TH-cam. We are seeing the effort bridge & loving the episodes.

    You didn’t mention Bribie… it’s a place you can just drive up the beach for an hour to just have lunch….

    So amazing, I’m really going to have to take ur word for it as I haven’t been able to get on to any island, they are all on the bucket list with everything else. Keep up the content it’s amazing

    Best overview of the islands i have seen. Like how you break down the overall rating into seperate ratings.

    Last Christmas I couldn't get more than 3 days off work. I took a mate, two kids, a box trailer and 3 solid plastic kayaks to wathumba creek. Brisbane to wathumba on the first day. 2 nights of flooding then home in one day. 9 hours either way 😂.
    It's doable but never again.
    Fraser is worth spending 5 nights minimum

    Awesome video Bridget definitely agree with you on your opinion with the islands. But hey I haven’t done any of those yet . I was only allowed to do Bribie Island. Hopefully I might afford to move back to Australia and explore these islands and spend some quality time with my children is well which live in Narangba. Definitely looking forward to seeing you next week for your next episode

    This is a good comparison video. I've been looking at which SE QLD island is worth visiting.
    Not cost considering, Moreton seems like a good option.

    great vid thanks for sharing I've done all the islands for years and will continue to do them i have the same opinion as you on most of your content, but you forgot one little diamond in the rough and that's Bribie Island, she a little beauty cheers from Queensland south new sub cheers

    Why would you include Double Island Point, it's a Point when there's an island you can drive to. Bribie?

  • @thisguyyy8866
    @thisguyyy8866 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Bribie island is the cheapest, easiest and most convenient beach to get to and drive on.
    No barge fees etc. and there’s plenty of good camp grounds

  • @robincook2603
    @robincook2603 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Moreton Island is amazing.
    Because of its difficulty and costing to get there, keeps all the hoons off the island.
    FYI There’s no camping at DI. You’ll need to camp at Noosa North shore, inskip or Teewah

  • @geofrigden3388

    great explaining on the drive ability, in actual driving (not including the access) they would be for me from easy to hard - DI and stradie are very similar then Moreton and Fraser are very similar. Indian head and Ngarla are some of the softest sand in a long dry spell. like 10 PSI soft. Great comparison vid. Personl list is Fraser, Moreton and the other two.

    I know in the episode you said a week, but If you’re traveling from interstate and towing a Patriot Camper and don’t have a jetski, how long would you need for K’gari/Fraser. Could you still enjoy 3 days as a couple?

  • @dogg15
    @dogg15 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    As a local se qlder Moreton hands down. The cost keeps the dickheads out. You can have camp fires, and good surf👍

  • @aussiewalkabout4x4

    You should do a video on things that were not worth seeing or overhyped on the islands.

    Did you mention the price gouging on Fraser Island

  • @matp1102
    @matp1102 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It should also be noted that Moreton is hard to get on to. Very limited barge trips over and you need to book them in many months ahead unless you're a solo vehicle and just luck a spare spot. Not to mention, lining up, waiting, time on water for Moreton, the return trip will eat up a solid half a day as well.
    Straddie is good (probably the best, imo) for family trips.
    DI just attracts too many toolbags to make it worth going.
    Fraser, honestly didn't be compared to the rest, just too big and too much variety. Main negative for me is that it's about 4-5 hours to get to Inskip depending on traffic lol but if it's closer for you then you 100% could weekend trip it and be happy, just don't plan to see it all in that one weekend is all.

  • @filthyoffroadadventures
    @filthyoffroadadventures หลายเดือนก่อน

    Interesting video just confused why you included DI just because of its name? Why not put Bribie Island instead? Agree NSI is too expensive, we live close by and just don't go there very much at all anymore due to poor value.

    You missed Bribie Island.
    $0 access fee

    East and West camping options.
    Beach or inland track.
    Facilities without the high costs.

    • @gavinramsay539
      @gavinramsay539 หลายเดือนก่อน

      To drive the beach or inland track, you have to buy a weekly pass at $55.50. She's not $0

  • @stev01965

    For me Moreton is the best, I recon because like old mate said below less dickheads and also less tourists on Moreton, which makes it less busy and idiots that dont know how to drive a 4be. Because it gets so busy on fraiser it stuffs it up a bit i recon

    • @larrylevinsky
      @larrylevinsky หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you live in Brisbane, going to Moreton for 5 days costs the same as going to Fraser for 5 days in terms of overall trip cost. Yes, the barge to Moreton is stupid expensive, however, I can do door to door on one tank of fuel, where Fraser is at least a 2.5 tank trip door to door, so it works out the same for me.
