Discover what's on in the Bundaberg North Burnett Region this September and pencil these dates into your calender.

Every year the Southern Great Barrier Reef welcomes mother turtles upon the shores of Lady Elliot Island, Lady Musgrave Island and Mon Repos Beach as they return to the place they were born to lay their eggs, drawn by a magnetic connection to the tectonic plates of the beach established upon hatching. An experience for all ages and a true miracle of nature, with only 1 in 1000 baby turtles reaching maturity to return to lay, watching these magnificent turtles in their natural habitat is a bucket list experience you don't want to miss. So, whether you're swimming with turtles among the coral-filled waters of the Southern Great Barrier Reef or witnessing a miracle on a ranger-guided Mon Repos Nightly Turtle Encounter, come experience the magic of the turtle lifecycle this Bundaberg Turtle Season.

Imagine it's Friday night, you've finished a hard week of late nights, strict deadlines and troublesome kids who seem even more restless than usual. You need a break, you need seclusion. Woodgate Beach offers 16km of pristine white sand beaches, calm blue waters and that quiet, peaceful seaside town vibe. Why not leave the kids with your parents, or treat your partner with a relaxing weekend away?

Whether you're looking for a beautiful space to lounge around and catch up on life, a foodie haven, or an action-packed getaway, you'll be surprised by what Bundaberg can offer for your next girl's weekend.
