Uncover the Riches of the Queensland's Sweet Spot with a Safari on Wheels
Nestled on the banks of the Burnett River, lies the vibrant city of Bundaberg, a hidden gem in the Australian state of Queensland. With a population of over 70,000, it is known for its sugarcane fields, iconic rum, and farming credence. An ideal destination to explore by a car, thanks to its spectacular tourist offerings, such as the famous Bundaberg Rum Distillery, and the beautiful landscape of the Burnett River.
Not far from the heart of Bundaberg is Mon Repos Conservation Park, home to the largest concentration of nesting marine turtles on Australia’s east coast. With just a 15-minute drive, you can witness one of nature's miracles, the annual turtle nesting and hatching. From Bundaberg to the south, within an hour's drive, lies the Elliott and Burrum Coast National Park, treasured for its long sandy beaches, mangrove-lined estuaries and vibrant wildflowers.
For a longer day trip, consider a 4-hour ride north to reach the city of Gladstone, where you can enjoy extraordinary national parks and breathtaking lookouts. Don't miss out on making a stop at the capricious Hinkler Hall of Aviation, located just outside Bundaberg. From Bundaberg, you can also access the southernmost part of the Great Barrier Reef, located about a 4-hour boat ride east. The Lady Elliot Island, a coral cay offering magnificent marine biodiversity and bird-watching, should top your must-visit list. Bundaberg is truly a springboard for an unforgettable road trip!
