Bribie Island

Bribie Island is located in the northwestern area of Moreton Bay. It is a 34km long sand island joined to the mainland via a bridge over the tranquil waters of the Pumicestone Passage.

Just a 45 minute drive from Brisbane, Bribie is a haven for those seeking a "sea change", young families, water sport enthusiasts and nature lovers.

Woorim is Brisbane’s closest patrolled surf beach, the venue for regular surf carnivals and a popular spot for swimmers and board riders.

Fishing is exceptional in the area with Tailor, bream, whiting, mackerel and flathead frequently caught in and around the Island with mud crabs and sand crabs also there for the taking.

Pumicestone National Park is also popular with picnickers and overnight campers at Mission Point, which is located on a beautiful white sandy beach.
