Sea & Sand Hopper

You might at @snakesdownunder’s daily croc show 😏⁠
⁠
A full death roll, right in front of you... equal parts intense and fascinating to watch up close.⁠
⁠
And that’s just one part of the day. Think snake shows, reptile handling, koala talks, animal encounters and more, all just 500m off the Bruce Highway in Childers.⁠
⁠
Road trip pit stop? We’d call this one pretty wild 🐾⁠

Think you could finish this? 👀⁠
⁠
The Mongrel Menu at @grandhotelchilders is basically a dare disguised as lunch.⁠
⁠
We’re talking portions with absolutely no interest in subtlety... like 1kg of rump or ribs, triple-meat-patty burgers and the parmy stacker piled two chicken breasts high.⁠
⁠
🏆 Finish the lot? Bragging rights secured.⁠
❎ Tap out? Welcome to the takeaway box of shame 😏⁠

Your visitors get a holiday. You get the perks. 😏

Got mates or rellies rolling into town for the school holidays? Don`t just show them around, cash in while you`re at it.

With Bring a Mate, Get the Goods, you could score everything from free entry and 10% savings to $50 off experiences and plenty of cheeky extras across the Bundaberg Region.

Or if you`re the one heading to Bundy to visit family, do your hosts a favour and tell `em about the deals. Splitting the savings is only fair. 😉

After all, if someone`s doing the hard work of playing tour guide, showing off the reef, the rum, the beaches and all their local favourites, they deserve a little something for their efforts.

Bring a mate, get the goods. Easy done. 💪🍻🤠

Seafood spread straight from the source 👀🦐⁠
⁠
@grunskesbytheriver is one of the few seafood processors in Queensland still dealing directly with the public. No middleman, just that trawler-to-table taste!⁠
⁠
Prawns, oysters, scallops, bugs, fish and chips... with Burnett River views on the side 😏⁠

The Perfect Excuse for a Road Trip 🎸🫐
Drive in for the markets, local eats and blueberry-filled fun, then stick around for the Blueberry Jam Sesh featuring Tex Perkins & Matt Walker, 19-Twenty and more. The best part? You don`t have to watch the clock. Roll out the swag, camp under the stars and turn one great night into a full weekend away. 🚗🌙🏕️🎶

Hop aboard the @australian_sugar_cane_railway for a 2km ride through the Bundaberg Botanic Gardens on historic locomotives once used to haul sugar cane around the region.⁠
⁠
There’s leafy scenery and local history for the grown-ups, while the littlest passengers are usually just very excited to be on a train 🚂⁠
⁠
Everybody’s happy. Job done 😏⁠

From almost bare to bursting with life 💙⁠
⁠
In honour of #BiodiversityMonth, we’re sharing the seriously impressive comeback story of Lady Elliot Island.⁠
⁠
After guano mining stripped much of the coral cay’s vegetation in the late 1800s, decades of regeneration, restoration and protection have helped transform it back into a thriving sanctuary above and below the water.⁠
⁠
Today, @ladyelliotislandecoresort is home to more than 1,200 species of marine life, manta rays, nesting turtles and one of the Great Barrier Reef’s most diverse seabird populations.⁠
⁠
A living example of why restoring and protecting biodiversity matters 🌏✨⁠
