Bundaberg
is a thriving regional centre situated on the
Burnett River. This city has been the main centre for the local sugar
industry and is famous for the Bundaberg Rum Distillery.
More recently however the emphasis is shifting
towards the increasingly popular Eco tourism industry in which the Bundaberg
area has a huge future.
|
|
The city has all the attributes and infrastructure to ensure that this can
happen. There are State Government offices, shopping centres featuring major
chains, individual shops and restaurants, motels, B and Bs, etc. There are
excellent bus routes that link the coastal areas and the individual suburbs
of the city itself.
Bundaberg has very good medical facilities both public and private. |
 |
 |
The
Queensland University has its Central Queensland campus here and it shows
strong development and growth both now and into the future with new courses
being offered each year.
Bundaberg
is serviced well by rail and the recently added fast tilt train service is
bringing huge increases in travelers from the north and the south. (4 hours
from Brisbane)
The local airport has many daily flights to Brisbane linking to all the
major cities in Australia as well as flights out to the reef islands of Lady
Elliot and Lady Musgrave – very popular tourist and dive spots

Bundaberg is the jumping
off point to the Great Barrier Reef's most southern and most accessible
Islands - Lady Elliot and Lady Musgrave. Both of these Islands are world
class dive spots and have regular flights and boat trips daily. Whale
watching day trips are organized in season and one of the
world's finest turtle rookeries is at Mon Repos Beach. Our Rum
Distillery is known far and wide - as is the product! The region is
also becoming known for several fine wineries. There are annual Arts
Festivals, Kite Festivals, Food Festivals and the Dance and Speech and
Drama Eisteddfod grows each year. Alpacas are bred nearby, we have some
very mysterious crater formations, ultra light designers, specialty
coffee growers, hemp production trials .... a truly diverse and
interesting region

|
The two immediate local councils, Bundaberg City and
Burnett Shire (coastal areas), are now
amalgamating with other nearby councils to form the Greater Bundaberg Region
Council - this will only be a benefit for the entire area...
This is undoubtedly an area with the potential to attract new businesses
setting up or relocation of existing business or industry. It also is
immensely desirable as a holiday destination. However the greatest
appeal is that of the lifestyle opportunities and advantages it offers to
its residents.
