Many long-distance bus services also pass through the city. The city has its own airport, with flights to Brisbane and Lady Elliot Island.
It is impossible not to love this great and gracious coastal city. Bundaberg, Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville and, to a lesser extent, Cairns all have a charming late-nineteenth century feel about them. Of course each city has its own unique idiosyncrasies, with Bundaberg taking credit for the famous Rum Distillery, the incongruity of Bert Hinkler's stucco-and-brick English house in the middle of verdant sub-tropical botanical gardens, and the Lutheran Church with its massive Biblical text façade.
Bundaberg is a great place to come if you are short on cash and looking for a payday. Fruit picking is the towns speciality, offering plenty of easy to find short term fruit picking work during harvest, especially if you plan a little in advance. Commercial fruit and vegetable production which is commonly found include tomatoes, zucchinis, capsicums, legumes and watermelons . These are all grown in abundant quantities.
Subtropical Bundaberg is also dependent to a large extent on the local sugar industry. Extensive sugar cane fields extend throughout the district, with value-adding operations such as the milling and refinement of sugar and its packaging and distribution are found around the city.
Tourism is also a crucial industry which is known as the 'Gateway to the Great Barrier Reef'. The city happens to lie near the southern end of the reef in proximity to Lady Elliot and Lady Musgrave Islands. The world famous Mon Repos turtle rookery can be tracked down on the coast just east of Bundaberg, as is the town of Bargara, an popular holiday and retirement destination which is getting busier every year.
