With a beach that has gentle waves perfect for toddlers, shallow waters, and beautiful parklands, it’s easy to see why families love visiting here. The seaside is also equipped with several tables, picnic shelters, and BBQs so that anyone who wants to catch up with friends and have a lovely meal can easily do so. It does get busy on the weekends, so you may want to come in early to grab a spot.

Bongaree’s beach is also famous for terrific fishing, boating, kayaking, and other water sports. Its jetty allows you to bomb-dive right here, and on calmer days, one can paddle-board on the sea. The beach is ideal for kids to safely run and play or make sandcastles for hours with the fine white sand throughout the year. If you’re looking for more dining options, you’re in luck: there are many wonderful takeaway shops, cafes, an ice-cream stand, and even a grocery store that are all just a stone’s throw away from the beach.

This township was named after an intrepid Aboriginal explorer who hailed from Broken Bay. He accompanied Flinders during his quests while improving communication among the land’s traditional caretakers and white explorers. This is just one of the many interesting details of Bribie Island, whose history goes back to ancient times. For visitors keen on learning more, there are many museums and galleries worth visiting in town.

Burn some food of by going on the Bongaree Walkabout, which begins and finishes at the jetty. The walkabout will lead you to numerous historical and cultural landmarks, especially those by the foreshore. With 16 primary landmarks to discover, you’ll leave learning a thing or two about this beautiful place.

Bongaree’s rich history and family-friendly activities make it a must-visit while in Moreton Bay. Be sure to explore the range of accommodation within the town, including a wide range of hotels, caravan parks, holiday houses, motels, resorts, and apartments.
