Naturally brewed, Bundaberg Ginger Beer has been an Aussie favourite since 1968, long before Kombucha exploded onto the cafe scene. It all began when two generations of the Fleming family invested in a bottling and brewing business together. Fast forward fifty plus years into the future – the ginger beer is more iconic than ever and the company behind it is still family owned and operated.

We have been eating (and drinking) our way around the region to find the best spots to either breakfast if you are an early bird or brunch if the comfort of bed kept you sleeping in. Packed with local deliciousness, the best coffee and drinks and atmosphere to while away a morning - these top 7 breakfast and brunch spots showcase what the Bundaberg region is all about, amazing locally-driven produce based food, wonderful hospitality and good times.

The closest access point to the Great Barrier Reef from Brisbane, Bundaberg is the town the turtles call home, where the reef touches the beach, where plates overflow with local produce and the rum is always world class.

Sweeping white sands, rockpools just a ramble from the shore, turtle tracks leading to crystal clear waters and a whole lotta’ reef snorkelling – the Bundaberg Region has the reef just within the reach of your flippers. If you are holidaying with your little ones, or teens who are 13 going on 30, here’s the reef lowdown on all the natural experiences on offer here on the coast. Pack the snorkel and flippers (or just goggles will do) and jump on into our reef within reach!

This year, give the gift of travel and spend time with friends and family exploring or rediscovering the place we call home.
