Best-laid plans are at your fingertips for an extraordinary holiday in the Bundaberg North Burnett region, Queensland. The pick of accommodation, eating options, events, tours, shopping hot spots and more are right here in the palm of your hand.

Be inspired by this comprehensive guide, which provides the key to adventures encompassing land, sea, Great Barrier Reef and beyond.

Create your own story from start to finish by mapping out everything from where to rest your head at night, where to set up with a good book on the beach for a day, where to pick up fresh and local produce, where the wineries are at, where to get your retail fix, what tours to take, how to get up close and personal with turtles and what events to attend.

Bundaberg is the gateway to the Southern Great Barrier Reef, with Lady Elliot Island or Lady Musgrave Island accessible via ferry or flight. Stay right on the reef, metres away from pristine snorkelling and scuba diving with turtles, manta rays, abundant fish and coral life.

This region is one of Australia’s great food bowls and whether at a farm gate with spare change, off the trawler or at one of our great restaurants, there’s plenty of local, family farmed fresh produce for you to sink your teeth into.

If you want to hook your own meal and are chasing a big Bass or Barra - our hinterland areas offer great fresh water fishing in one of the many dams and gorges, you might even hook an elusive Mangrove Jack.

Bushwalks, hikes and 4WD are abounds with National Parks stretching from Woodgate, through the hinterlands heart with exciting trails, tracks and wildlife to explore and if you are a bit of a bird watcher – there are over 200 species alone in the Burrum Coast National Park to get you started.

Trace our Indigenous ancestors footsteps through the Cania Gorge National Park, while taking in sandstone monoliths in red and yellow ochres, spotting native wildlife and bushwalking on one of the many trails through the park before hanging up your boots and doing it all again the next day.

If you are heading our way in November to March you may just see a Loggerhead Turtle make her way back to her birthplace and into the dunes to lay a clutch of eggs which come January will see baby turtles hatching their way to take their first dive into the big blue ocean.
Mon Repos, managed by Queensland National Parks is the largest Loggerhead turtle rookery in the Southern hemisphere.

Queensland’s Bundaberg North Burnett region begins nearly three hours north of Brisbane and stretches east from the Southern Great Barrier Reef waters around Lady Elliot and Lady Musgrave Islands, through the coastal townships of Bargara, Mon Repos and Woodgate, the rural hinterland of Childers, Biggenden, Gayndah, Eidsvold, Mt Perry, Monto & Cania Gorge, to Mundubbera in the West.
