Things to See and Do
Queensland doesn’t just do holidays - it does experiences you’ll remember forever.
Visit nature-rich conservation areas, including national parks, bushlands and wetlands, and spot koalas, wallabies and other native wildlife.
Dolphins, dugongs, sea turtles and manta rays are just some of the marine animals that call these waters home – don’t miss the majestic Humpback whales that migrate along the east coast of Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) from May to November each year.
Explore the sparkling waters of Southern Moreton Bay and its island gems, wander through art galleries and along a heritage trail, enjoy local and international entertainment, and immerse in Quandamooka culture.
Enjoy a drink at Queensland’s oldest licensed hotel, go boating, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, fishing, surfing, swimming, picnicking, bushwalking, trail riding, and so much more – on Redlands Coast there is always something extraordinary to see and do.
