A LOCAL ITINERARY

So, your Kiwi cuzzies have landed in Brisbane and they're crashing at your place for a few days and are asking the inevitable question: So... where are you taking us bro?

Sweet as. Lucky for you, Moreton Bay is packed with easy adventures - beach days, whale watching, hinterland drives, farm visits and some seriously good seafood. This 48-hour itinerary, written by a local Kiwi for Kiwis, is your cheat sheet.

DAY 1

SUNRISE

Start the day with coffee by the water at Scarborough Marina, then wander along Redcliffe Jetty. Time your visit on a Sunday and stroll the Redcliffe Markets along the foreshore. 

MORNING

Head out with Brisbane Whale Watching for an unforgettable experience spotting humpback whales (boarding commences at 9am for a 10am departure). 

AFTERNOON

Drive north to Bribie Island for a swim, beach walk or paddleboard. You can cruise the water for hours, swimming and spotting the local wildlife. 

DINNER

Grab a table at Sandstone Point Hotel for sunset drinks and dinner. Be sure to check their entertainment and what's on guide. You'll be surprised with the choice music line up.
