The Bundaberg Coral Isles and Country Region encompasses a diversity of experiences, making it an ideal holiday location. With its pristine environment the region is home to many marine creatures. Humpback whales pass close to the shoreline en route to Hervey Bay, and there is Australia's largest mainland turtle rookery situated at Mon Repos Beach. Reef walk, snorkel and dive on one of the great wonders of the world, the Great Barrier Reef. Throughout the region there is a sense of history mixed with wilderness adventure, rural experiences and warm country hospitality. All this and more is waiting for you to enjoy.
At the centre of the sugar cane country is Bundaberg, or "Bundy" as it is more fondly known. Bundaberg a progressive city of around 50,000, is 14 kilometres from the Coral Coast, where the townships of Elliott Heads, Innes Park, Bargara and Burnett Heads boast some of the most pristine beaches in Australia. To the south is Buxton, one of the last unspoilt fishing villages, and Woodgate with an abundance of wildlife in the surrounding national parks.
Childers, a National Trust town, is set on top of rolling hills of red soil, and the northern Town of 1770 is the first place that James Cook landed in Queensland. The Central and North Burnett provides a contrast to the coastal areas of the region with its rugged gorges, imposing mountain ranges and serene rural views.
Things to do in Bundaberg:
* Get a Bundy into you. One of Australia's
favourite spirits, Bundaberg Rum, is produced at the Bundaberg
Distillery from sugar cane crops grown into the area.
* The delights of the southern-most part of the Great
Barrier Reef are also accessible from Bundaberg. Pristine
Lady Elliot Island - voted one of the world's top 10 diving
spots - is a short flight away, while Lady Musgrave is a boat
trip from the mainland.
