Woodgate Beach

Reviewed By MarleneBlundell - Golden Beach, Australia

The beach at Woodgate is pristine! The sand is white, the sea is so blue and at times you can be the only people there. There is a lovely flat walking track along the foreshore with entry points to the beach, lots of seats and some bbqs and toilets strategically placed. If you want somewhere to breathe again and enjoy peace and the beauty of nature Woodgate beach is it. We will return.

Tinaberries

Tinaberries is a working fruit producing farm nestled between the city of Bundaberg and the Southern Great Barrier Reef coastal town of Elliott Heads. Rich in history and even a residential wild kangaroo "Bob" this is a truly wonderful experience. Rich soil from this volcanic region coupled with the tropical climate enables Tinaberries to produce superior quality fruit year round. Fruit is sold direct on the farm, locally and even transported to Melbourne’s finest restaurants. During strawberry growing season visitors are invited to "Pick your own" which is very popular with locals as well as visitors to the region. All year around Tinaberries sells delicious fresh fruit ice cream in huge serves! Whether it's to call in on a drive back from the coast for an ice cream, Pick you own strawberries or just to soak up the traditional and historic farm yard experience, Tinaberries has something for every visitor to the South East Queensland region. Right now it's ICE CREAM SEASON!!

Ohana Cider House & Tropical Winery

Ohana Cider House and Tropical Winery is a must-see stop in the Bundaberg region. Sample a range of award-winning ciders, fruit wines and liqueurs with owners Josh and Zoe - or indulge in an insta-worth tasting paddle in the outdoor cider garden.

Reviewed By adventureswithemj - Brisbane, Australia

Just around the corner from the Bundaberg Rum Distillery is the Ohana Cider House & Tropical Winery. Here we met owners Josh & Zoe and heard their story about how (with no winemaking experience and on a whim) they purchased a run-down winery in Childers in 2014. They have done great things since then and now produce several different ciders, two different wines, a port and a liqueur. The apple cider is made with fresh apples from Queensland’s apple capital Stanthorpe and the wine is fruit wine made with strawberries and pineapple (yum!). I sampled several ciders and both the Strawberry Moscato and Pineapple Moscato. While the ciders were nice, the wine was excellent! In fact, it was so excellent that I ended up buying 12 bottles of it! My husband tried and purchased the coffee liqueur. They also do a cheese board to accompany your tastings that includes Kenilworth cheeses, so grab yourself one of these and settle in for a great afternoon! Pro tip: Get yourself a designated driver and grab yourself the $18 tasting paddle that allows you to try six different drinks of your choice.

Great place for kids and animal lovers! The Glamping Tents were first class with everything we could possibly need. You could literally bring clothes and that’s it! Such a relaxing place and the animals make it even better. Camping is a bit of a hassle for our family with a new born and the Glamping Tents made it possible. We got the experience with our family without any effort whatsoever. They have absolutely everything you could possibly need in the accommodation (even firewood to have a camp fire!) we can’t wait to come back again!

Inside, you’ll walk through a series of 75,000 litre American White Oak Vats – the very same vats which have matured hundreds of thousands of litres of rum (after being emptied and rebuilt of course). Inside these vats live a sensory experience where you can see, touch and smell your way through our rich history in creating Australia’s Favourite Rum – Bundaberg Rum. Please ensure that you arrive at least 20-30 mins early for your tour, especially for the last tour of the day and during school holiday periods. Unfortunately Flammable devices; matches and lighters, as well as any item with a battery including; watches, cameras, and mobile phones, pose a fire hazard to the Distillery and cannot be taken on tour.

Awesome tour and well worth the price. Our party of three adults thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour by Bobbi - very knowledgeable, friendly and enjoyed her humour :) Definitely an asset to the team and added to the great Aussie vibe. Samples were great inspiration to encourage purchases via the giftshop. Very happy with our outing! Definitely advise utilising a taxi to thoroughly enjoy the samples!
