Nature's calendar

Twelve months,
twelve oceans.

There is no closed season here. Our subtropical latitude means no stinger season and swimmable water in every month of the year — so the only question is which spectacle you want to be here for. Tap a month.

What's happening underwater

  • {{ n.text }}

Temperatures and rainfall are long-term monthly averages for the Bundaberg region and the Bunker Group lagoon. Wildlife timings are seasonal patterns, not guarantees — they're wild animals with their own diary.
