Bongaree Aerial Photos
Bribie Island is one of Brisbane’s best kept secrets. From these stunning aerial photos, you will see that it has both still water and surf swimming. Drive over the Pumicestone Passage via the Bribie Island Bridge and turn right at the roundabout into Welsby Parade. Bongaree is named after a respected tribal chief who liked to dress in a general’s uniform to welcome new people to the colony. Add to Description →

Pay your respects to the soldiers who served in the Vietnam War in Vietnam’s Veterans Park. Track through Buckley’s Hole Park and spend some time in the bird hide there. Fishing from the beach at South Point, overlooking Moreton Bay, is always wonderful.
