A 100-year-old guard’s van, which is one of only two still in existence in Queensland, has been lovingly restored by passionate members of the Bundaberg Railway Historical Society.

Visitors to the Bundaberg Region can easily learn more about the impacts of lighting on local marine life with the launch of a Bundaberg Regional Council turtle awareness campaign.

It was an impressive night for the Bundaberg Region at the Queensland Tourism Industry Awards as five local facilities took home major accolades. Congratulations to Bundaberg Rum, Lady Elliot Island Eco Resort, the Windmill Cafe Bargara, Lady Musgrave Experience and Hinkler Hall of Aviation.

Visitors to the new Mon Repos Visitor Centre will be treated to Indigenous-inspired cuisine as the new on-site Gidji Café opens its doors.

Bundaberg tourism operators are showcasing the region, with six local facilities nominated for awards at the upcoming 2021 Queensland Tourism Awards.

Bundaberg Region tourism opportunities are being promoted far and wide with a new campaign to raise awareness that it is "where the reef begins".
