The S.S. Maheno Shipwreck on Fraser Island is the remains of a trans-Tasman ocean liner washed ashore during a cyclone in 1935. K’gari’s treacherous coastline has claimed many ships and lives over the years, and the rusted shipwreck is a silent testament to that. Initially operating between New Zealand and Australia, and later serving as a hospital ship during WWI, its rusting structure now serves as a captivating man-and-nature-made tourist attraction.
