Stride out on Straddy
North Stradbroke is not your typical Queensland holiday island. It's run by locals for locals and welcomes visitors as if they were friends. It boasts empty beaches, bountiful fishing, challenging surf breaks and whale-watching, and is also notable for being the second-largest sand island in the world (the largest is K’gari (Fraser Island), just a bit further up the coast).
