Take an early morning walk down Bourbong Street and see the farmers delivering fresh produce to cafes along the way. Head out from the coastal surrounds of Bundaberg through the rich farming landscape to Childers forty minutes to the southwest of our city.
The iconic rich red soil and near perfect year-round conditions make the Bundaberg and North Burnett region the ideal place for a food lover’s paradise. Taste food next to where it has been grown just hours after it has been picked or caught and let the flavours dance in your mouth to a symphony of freshness – that’s the Bundaberg North Burnett Food experience!
Only a couple of kilometres north of Bargara, Mon Repos is famous as the largest and most accessible turtle rookery in mainland Australia. During the day, Mon Repos is popular for swimming and sailing; however, the turtle nests must be taken into account. No dogs are allowed on the beach and beach umbrellas should not be used above the high water mark as they may damage the eggs.
In Bundaberg on the Southern Great Barrier Reef between November and March, there is a miracle that takes place nightly on the shores of Mon Repos beach - only 7 kilometres from Bundaberg.
