Stuart McKay is the consummate educator and experiential professional renown for his videography and incredible images depicting the beauty and wonder of the Southern Great Barrier Reef. The gallery has a display of high quality archival images all available for purchase framed or print only. All are signed, names and numbered with editions of 100 per print.
We did the whole day Larc tour and while we took several photos, we wanted to have something that captured our experience. So we checked out this gallery and there was an array of photographs in vivid colors to choose from. What captivated us the most (and purchased) were those captioned EARTH MEETS SKY WITH LARC and THE HEADLANDS. We also learned from Stuart’s dad, Ian, that proceeds from gallery sale go to communities overseas who are in need. That just about made our photographs more special.

As a lover of museums I found this lovely treasure one of the best of the ones run by volunteers. The volunteers were well informed and very friendly and the museum was clean and displays well presented. Thank you for bringing back fond memories of my youth.

Come and be amazed by the awe inspiring, dynamic and unique structure of soaring glass and steel made in the shape of an aircraft wing. Set in the lush Bundaberg Botanic Gardens, the Hinkler Hall of Aviation brings to life the adventures and achievements of Australia's famous pioneer solo aviator Bert Hinkler. Become part of the story through interactive displays; fly like Bert on the distinctive glide simulators, be enthralled by Bert's life achievements and personal story in the movie theatrettes, sit in the replica Avro Baby aircraft and also view the original from his record setting 1921 flight. With numerous full size display aircraft exhibits and unique museum artefacts, including the beautifully restored Hinkler House 'Mon Repos', Bert Hinkler's relocated Southampton home, this memorable and extraordinary experience in Bundaberg, Queensland is a must do aviation adventure. Hungry? Take in the surrounding Botanic Gardens flora and fauna while you relax and enjoy fresh deliciou
Thé Hinkler Hall of Aviation brightened an otherwise gloomy weathered day. Our pleasant, enthusiastic and informative Customer Service person Yvonne, provided the perfect ‘clues’ to help us navigate this wonderful example of celebration of Bundaberg’s favourite Son. The whole experience from the Interactive Displays, photographs and fascinating memorabilia to the personal interaction with Bert & Nance in Mons Repos gave us an insight way beyond our expectation. Allow plenty of time to absorb the Hall and adjoining Mons Repos - thoroughly worth a few hours to enjoy travelling back to 1928 ! Thanks D&G, Brisbane

this is a small gallery run by passionate people. The museum has a lending library of a large range of art books in conjunction with the library. During my stay they had two very interesting exhibits focusing on the local/regional: Found! Studio Dog, with most of the art pieces tied to man's (and woman's) best friend in a time of isolation and the other exhibit a history of the two iconic bridges of the town: the Burnett and Kennedy bridges built in the late 19th century.

We have a 9yo already addicted to ginger beer. What a great place for him to learn & experience how his fav drink is made, with interactive activities during the self guided tour, then taste testing with Marie, which included a take home pack. I now have a kid who has many more favourite flavours & a real understanding of how it is made. Add this to your list of stops in Bundaberg!
