Gladstone Highlights

Take a casual journey around Gladstone to uncover all that this regional hub has to offer. As the gateway to the Southern Great Barrier Reef, Gladstone is a thriving town with Queensland's largest multi commodity port, surrounded by picturesque Islands and Reef and a diverse rural hinterland of the Banana Shire. Pass by interesting local sights and pause to capture photos from great vantage points. Pass by the Regional Art Gallery and Museum housed in the Old Town Hall and make your way to Friend Park at Barney point. Continue onto the Tondoon Botanic Gardens to enjoy free time for a wander around the ground, the lake or pause at the Japanese Tea house. The garden is one of the only totally native gardens in Australia and home to birds, wallabies and turtles. Onsite you'll find a lovely café, gift shop, visitor centre and art gallery featuring the works of local artists. Re-board the coach and venture close to the NRG Gladstone power station as you journey back towards the pier.
