Destination

Get in touch

Drive outside the centre of Brisbane City, and you'll find incredibly dynamic landscapes in every direction. Expect to find quaint country towns, craft beer, rugged mountains, expansive freshwater lakes, wineries, and adventurous activities if you head inland. Then, head towards the ocean and find the world's second and third-biggest sand islands, wild dolphins, migrating whales, relaxed beachside towns, fresh seafood and kayaking.

Highlights of the Brisbane Region include:

Ipswich: 30 kilometres, 30-minute drive from Brisbane CBD

Explore gracious old buildings, beautiful parks and a quirky food and shopping precinct in Queensland’s oldest provincial city.

City of Logan: 20 kilometres, 30-minute drive

Heart-thumping adrenaline, multicultural immersion or reconnecting with nature – City of Logan has it all.

Moreton Bay Region: 20 kilometres, 30-minute drive

Take a drive along the mountain roads through dense forest, or head seaward for dolphin-spotting and lazy evenings spent by the sea.

Moreton Island: 70-min ferry

Just 25 kilometres off the shore is the third-largest sand island in the world. Find pristine beaches, mysterious wrecks, hand feed wild dolphins and quad bikes.

North Stradbroke Island: 40-min drive and 25 or 50-min ferry

Straddie (to the locals) is famous for its scenic headlands, freshwater lakes, rolling surf and endless white sandy beaches. It's a great place to spot whales in the winter months.

Redlands Coast: 25 kilometres, 30-minute drive

From the coast to the hinterland, the Redlands offers a charming seaside and natural bushland experience.

Scenic Rim: 60 kilometres, 60-minute drive

Brisbane’s World Heritage-listed backyard is home to lush rainforests, spectacular mountain ranges and local food and wine.

Somerset: 70 kilometres, 60-minute drive

With expansive lakes, mountain forests and tranquil valleys, Somerset is the ideal real country escape from the bustle of city life.
