Remember those family holidays spent by a perfect golden sandy beach, tranquil blue water and buying locally caught fish and chips for lunch? Bribie Island still offers visitors all of this and much much more.

Over 300 bird species visit Bribie Island each year, nesting in the trees along the shoreline and foraging along the sand flats. Kangaroos and emus signtings are a regular occurence on the local golf course and the odd dingo may be seen along the National Park beaches.
Since a large majority of Bribie Island is covered in forest, it offers a peaceful spot for visitors and boasts many stunningly gorgeous places to go picnicking or 4WD driving. Glowing blue water, clean golden beaches, and great fishing are just a few things that people can indulge in when holidaying at Bribie Island.

Fresh local seafood is definitely one of the popular menu favourites of the Bribie restaurants. A delicious seafood feast mixed with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean make Bribie Island a beautiful place for celebrating special occasions.
Unlike the other Moreton Bay islands, Bribie Island also has a rich history in both social and military. The island was used by the Australian army and navy during World War 2 to defend the entrance to Brisbane, which led to the building of Fort Bribie. Original World War II bunkers and gun emplacements placed along the ocean foreshore are still on show today.
All in all, Bribie Island is worth a visit at least once in a life time.
