With a population of over 46,000, Bundaberg is famous for it's sugar cane industry, providing spectacular cane fires during harvest time.

'Bundy' is also lined with coral beaches and is the first point for whale watching trips and boat outings to the coral islands of Lady Musgrave and Lady Elliot Island.

The nautical theme continues within the town itself, with the meandering Burnett River providing laid back boating culture alongside ample fishing and nature reserves.

The town centre boasts all the major shopping outlets and entertainment you would expect from a vibrant town with clubs, theatres and restaurants aplenty.

Bundaberg has become one of Queensland's most modern and progressive cities. Founded in 1870, throughout the region you will find a unique mixture of progress and historical value.

The City's unprecedented progress and development makes it the undisputed centre of the Wide Bay Region.
