Come and see a piece of history resting on the stunning 75 Mile Beach. The S.S. Maheno shipwreck, a former luxury liner and WWI hospital ship, is a truly haunting and beautiful sight against the sand and waves. It's an essential stop on your K'gari adventure, offering incredible photo opportunities, especially at sunrise. You'll need a 4WD to get here along the beach highway, and it's best to time your visit for low tide to get the best views of the wreck.
