Our story begins with an adventurous young boy who spent much of his childhood exploring a magical island which he called K’gari. Growing up, Mark spent his school holidays exploring an enchanted sand island just a short boat trip from where he lived in Maryborough. He spent his days chasing sand crabs, catching worms, fishing off the beach and of course, like any kid does when they spend time on

the beach, he built lots of sandcastles. A quiet but adventurous kid, Mark spent his days marvelling at the many natural wonders that are found on the island and asking his parents all about them. He was always hungry for knowledge and read many books about the island and studied the regions history. He was fascinated by the natural history of the island but so troubled by the history of it’s peoples. Little Mark eventually grew up, and by grew up we mean into a big kid with responsibilities. Eventually after teaching for a while he started his own adventure company and named it Drop Bear Adventures, now called K'gari Fraser Island Adventures, a company that we are proud to say does things a little differently to the rest. With Hana by his side, the biggest green hearted eco warrior you will ever meet, this nature loving duo head up K’gari’s most progressive tour company. Sustainable and culturally sensitive, this tour company is the sort of tour company you rave about. We would like to acknowledge that our adventures are held on the traditional lands of the Butchulla people.

The whales are on their way north! 🐋🌊

May marks the start of whale sightings off the Eastern K'gari beaches.

It is a bit of a hot competition on the Island to see who will spot the first whale of the season?!

Who is your money on? Which Drop Bear will see the first whale of the 2025 season?

Keep your eyes on the waves!

Lest We Forget. Today, we honour the courage and sacrifice of those who served.

As we explore the natural beauty of K’gari, we pause in gratitude for the freedom we have to roam, connect, and protect places like this.

A moment of silence. A moment of thanks.

Our Story

We love the freedom of 4WDriving on Fraser Island's beautiful beaches and couldn’t imagine doing anything as magical than sharing amazing experiences with beautiful people from all over the world.

Our tours take us off the beaten track and share another side to the island that not many people ever get to see. Immersing ourselves in a natural wonderland, exploring beautiful freshwater lakes, remarkable rainforests and endless sandy beaches. We spend our days journeying through time as we share the ancient history and dreamtime stories of this islands’ protectors, the Butchulla people.

Proudly the most culturally and environmentally respectful Fraser Island tour company on K’gari, we take our passion for our natural world to the next level. Our story begins with a young boy growing up on a magical island that he just never wanted to leave. On the outside, this little boy crew up to be a bearded man that we now call Poppa Bear, but on the inside he’s still just a big kid who likes a sunset beer.

Mark started Drop Bear Adventures so he could spend more time in a place that he loves and lucky for us he’s a top fella to work for. Together, with his eco-warrior wife, Hana this pair of love birds pump a whole lot of passion and energy into making Drop Bear Adventures the best tour company that it can be.
