At the centre of the
sugar cane country is Bundaberg, or “Bundy” as it is more
fondly known. Bundaberg a progressive city of around 50,000, is 14
kilometres from the Coral Coast, where the townships of Elliott
Heads, Innes Park, Bargara and Burnett Heads boast some of the
most pristine beaches in Australia. To the south is Buxton, one of
the last unspoilt fishing villages, and Woodgate with an abundance
of wildlife in the surrounding national parks.

Childers, a National
Trust town, is set on top of rolling hills of red soil, and the
northern Town of 1770 is the first place that James Cook landed in
Queensland. The Central and North Burnett provides a contrast to
the coastal areas of the region with its rugged gorges, imposing
mountain ranges and serene rural views. |
