Bribie Island
An island reached by road bridge, so no boat is needed. Woorim's surf beach and the Pumicestone Passage make it a relaxing seaside day out.
Bribie Island lies about 65 km north of Brisbane, at the northern end of Moreton Bay. It is the only island in the bay connected by a road bridge, and the drive onto the island takes about an hour. On the eastern side, Woorim Beach faces the Pacific Ocean and is a surf beach with lifeguards on duty. On the western side, the Bongaree area overlooks the calm Pumicestone Passage, which is good for walking, fishing and watching sunsets. Pelicans often gather near the jetty. Most of the island's north is part of Bribie Island National Park. With a permit, you can drive a 4WD along beach tracks and camp. Entry to the island is free. There is no direct train. You can take a train to Caboolture and then transfer to a bus, or simply drive.
