Walking Through History - Bundaberg CBD Heritage Walk

🎉 Lock it in, legends. @childersfestival is calling.

Last weekend in July. Four days. Big vibes. Zero chance you’re bored. Live tunes, bloody good food, family fun, and small-town magic that hits different.

And Sunday? That’s the big one.
The Bruce Highway shuts down and turns into one giant street party. No cars. No excuses. Just vibes.
🔥 Cane fires crackling
🌾 Markets taking over main street
🍷 Long lunches + Picnic in the Vines
🎶 Opera by the Lake
💃 Sneaky Sound System bringing the chaos
Round up your crew, book the stay and make a weekend of it.

The full program’s live 👉 Check it out 🔗 in bio.

You’re never too old to feel like a kid in a candy shop 🍫✨⁠
⁠
@chachachocolate on Bourbong Street is part Narnia, part Wonka and completely impossible to leave empty-handed. A chandelier overhead, trinkets and treasures, a vintage chocolate cabinet, handmade treats, international icons and curated gift hampers.⁠
⁠
Somewhere in here, there’s also a Cha Cha Bar hiding a golden ticket 🎫⁠

Pretty sure THIS is Australia’s best window seat 👀🐠⁠
⁠
One look through the glass and it’s turtles, rays, reef sharks and for these lucky guests, a smalleye stingray casually cruising by like it’s no big deal 😏⁠
⁠
For context, that stingray is the largest marine stingray in the world and one of the rarest… but at @ladyelliotislandecoresort⁠, rare marine encounters are kind of their thing 💙⁠
⁠
No snorkel needed. Just a glass-bottom boat with a window to another world.⁠

This is your sign to order the seafood platter 🦐👀⁠
⁠
For over 30 years, @grunskesbytheriver has been doing what they do best: wild-caught local seafood straight from the trawler to your table. Prawns, bugs, oysters, scallops and plenty more, best enjoyed riverside 💙⁠
⁠
Add a glass of something cold and you’ve got yourself a very solid lunch plan 😏⁠

Picked this morning. Gone by this afternoon 🍓⁠
⁠
Farmer Mick’s out here picking Everest-quality strawberries right at their peak... and fair warning, they don’t hang around for long once they hit the punnet 👀⁠
⁠
You’ll find them at @bargaraberriesmeadowvale, alongside scooped gelato, handcrafted jams and a café menu starring Strawberry Deb’s Pancakes and Mick’s Biscoff Pancakes 😏⁠
⁠
Fresh-from-the-field finds? Just one of the perks of being here in Australia’s food bowl 🍓✨⁠

House tour… but it’s floating on the Southern Great Barrier Reef 👀🏝️⁠
⁠
@ladymusgrave_experience just gave us the full tour of their floating HQ, and we’ve got just one question… when can we move in?⁠
⁠
Underwater observatory ✔️⁠
World-class reef access ✔️⁠
Rooftop VIP glamping experience ✔️⁠
⁠
Day trips depart from Bundaberg. Just saying. 💙⁠

It’s 192 metres of pure trust in 19th-century engineering 🛤️⁠
⁠
Hand-carved in the 1880s for the Mount Perry railway, Boolboonda Tunnel is a heritage-listed marvel you can literally drive through.⁠
⁠
Would you take it on? 👇⁠

14 flavours. One mission. 🥤⁠
⁠
@sunnythestaria put the @thebundabergbarrel to the test, tasting their way through the full lineup, one "shot" at a time 😏⁠
⁠
Creaming soda supremacy confirmed. Ginger beer still undefeated. Their rankings are in:⁠
⁠
Scott: Creaming Soda 🥇 Ginger Beer 🥈 Mango 🥉⁠
Diyanah: Sarsaparilla 🥇 Creaming Soda 🥈 Ginger Beer 🥉⁠
⁠
Best part? You can do the same for $20, including tastings, a self-guided tour and a take-home 6-pack.⁠
⁠
Where do your favourites land? 👇⁠

Happy Queensland Day to everyone who`s ever ordered a Bundy and Coke without looking at the menu 🥃😏⁠
⁠
For more than 130 years, @bundabergrum has been part of backyard barbecues, fishing trips, celebrations and stories shared with mates across the state and globe... and it all started right here in Bundaberg.⁠
⁠
Step inside the Bundaberg Rum Distillery to discover one of Australia`s most iconic stories. Uncover the history, craftsmanship and characters that helped make it a Queensland icon. And yes, there are tastings too. 😏⁠
⁠
Cheers, Queensland. You`ve more than earned it. 🥃☀️⁠

National Doughnut Day. But honestly, any excuse will do. 🍩😏⁠
⁠
At @bargaraconesandcoffee, it doesn`t stop at decked-out doughnuts. There`s real fruit ice cream, bubble waffles, loaded croissants, sweet sips and proper coffee to balance it all ☕⁠
⁠
So call it a celebration. Make it a plan. Find it at 53 Esplanade, Bargara. 📍⁠
