Ancient Mystery on K'gari as World's Largest Sand Island Lakes Dried Up During Rainy Era K'gari, the world's largest sand island, has long been celebrated for its striking freshwater lakes.
Dubbed "the Eyes of K'gari," these sacred sites hold deep cultural and spiritual significance for the Butchulla people, who are the Traditional Owners of the island.
New research from the University of Adelaide suggests that even the most resilient of these lakes may be vulnerable to disappearing under certain climate conditions.
