For a 4wd adventure getaway close to Brisbane, it’s hard to go past Bribie Island. It’s just a hop and a skip (70kms) from Queensland’s capital city, Brisbane. Plus, thanks to the Bribie Island Bridge, you don’t need to worry about a barge or ferry. With kilometres of surf beach backed by national park, beachside campsites, and some excellent fishing spots, who wouldn’t want to check it out?
Boasting both a long stretch of surf shoreline and a calm protected coastline, Bribie offers the best of both worlds for the beach lover. For surfside fun and access to long, white sandy stretches of four-wheel driving areas, head to the popular Woorim Beach on the eastern side of the island. On the protected western side of the island, the beaches at Bongaree, Bellara and Banksia Beach are favoured spots for families. With barbecues, picnic facilities, play areas for the kids and calm swimming and fishing spots, they make the ideal destination for a day out with family and friends.
There are interesting historic war time relics to check out, wildlife and plenty of locations where you can stop and relax with a picnic, and like many of the drives around Brisbane, it’s perfect all year round.
The Bribie Island Recreation Area provides a variety of coastal camping experiences, some accessible by 4WD, others accessible by boat. Try the Ocean Beach designated camping area, located 16km north of the beach access point on North St, Woorim. Find out more and get the right permits from the national parks service.
