Burnett Heads Boat Harbour

Burnett Heads Boat Harbour sits at the mouth of the Burnett River in the coastal town of Burnett Heads, about 15 minutes from Bundaberg in Queensland. The harbour is sheltered by a breakwater wall and offers deep-water access to the river and beyond.

A five-lane concrete boat ramp along Harbour Esplanade provides all-tide launching, though the surface can be slippery at low tide.

A pontoon jetty alongside the ramp assists with loading and unloading, and a nearby wharf is a popular spot for fishing and prawning. Ample parking for cars and trailers, lighting, toilets, wash-down areas, and picnic facilities are available on site.

The harbour is also notable as a port of entry for international leisure craft, receiving more custom clearances from the South Pacific than any other point on Australia's east coast.
