Catch the Bribie Feels

Peaceful paddles and easy nature walks… Bribie’s beauty is all around. Kayak the calm waters of the Pumicestone Passage, wander through Buckley’s Hole Conservation Park to birdwatch, or head to Woorim surf beach for a swim. If you’ve got a permit, you can take your 4WD beyond the flagged area and set up for the day right on the sand.

Family Favourites

Low-key spots perfect for a relaxed day with kids in tow or if you’re just after something light and local. Say hello to butterflies at the volunteer-run Butterfly House, wander through history at the Seaside Museum, or stroll the markets at Brennan Park every third Sunday. Nothing beats fish & chips by the jetty - a Bribie classic.
