Caboolture 

Less than an hours drive north of Brisbane is the gateway to the Sunshine Coast with white sandy beaches, stunning mountain scenery, and charming country villages. Caboolture is also well known for hot air ballooning, skydiving and gliding at the town's main airfield.

The nearby Abbey Museum of Art and Archaeology houses a priceless collection of antiques and fine art from around the world with treasures spanning 250,000 years of history.

Few attractions rival the splendour of Pumicestone Passage and the internationally recognised marine sanctuary off Bribie Island, home to dolphins, dugongs, turtles and more than 350 species of birdlife.

An easy 20 minutes from Caboolture, Bribie Island is linked by bridge and is a popular tourist destination for its excellent fishing waters, surfing beaches, National Parks and flora and fauna reserves.

Back on the mainland, the scenic areas of Woodford and Mt Mee, and the fishing communities of Donnybrook and Toorbul are just some of the attractive towns that abound with heritage and natural scenery.
