Bundaberg is in business
Whilst much of Queensland has suffered from the recent floods, it should be noted that tourist areas such as Bundaberg North Burnett are in business. The majority of the main attractions are operating as per normal. In most cases, no need to cancel bookings,- let's face it tourists are still visiting the region, the turtles at Mon Repos are still arriving to lay their eggs, whilst hatchlings are already returning back to the open ocean. For a true report on the current picture, telephone (07) 4153 8888 or visit www.bundabergregion.info
