Why Choose Brisbane for Your New Zealand to Australia Holiday?
Brisbane is a top choice for Kiwis traveling to Australia. With its subtropical climate, vibrant city life, and proximity to natural wonders, it’s the perfect starting point for an adventure. From the bustling South Bank to the scenic Moreton Bay, Brisbane offers something for every traveler.
But if you want to experience Australia’s wild side—pristine beaches, rugged bushland, and unique wildlife—you need to venture just a little further. That’s where Bribie Island comes in.
What Makes Bribie Island a Must-Visit for Kiwis?
Located just an hour’s drive from Brisbane, Bribie Island is Queensland’s only offshore island connected to the mainland by bridge. This makes it incredibly accessible for day trips while still offering the untouched beauty of a remote paradise.
- Stunning Beaches: Enjoy white sandy shores and crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, and relaxing.
- 4WD Adventures: Explore hidden lagoons, WWII bunkers, and remote stretches of beach only accessible by 4WD.
- Abundant Wildlife: Spot kangaroos, wallabies, sea eagles, and even dolphins along the coastline.

Tips for Kiwis Visiting Brisbane & Bribie Island
To make the most of your New Zealand to Brisbane holiday, here are a few handy tips:
- Best Time to Visit: Brisbane’s weather is beautiful year-round, but spring (September–November) and autumn (March–May) offer perfect conditions for outdoor adventures.
- Travel Essentials: Pack lightweight clothing, sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable walking shoes. Don’t forget your swimwear for those lagoon dips!
- Currency: Australia uses the AUD. Most places accept cards, but it’s handy to carry some cash for small purchases.
- Driving: Just like in NZ, Australians drive on the left-hand side. But leave the driving to us when exploring Bribie’s sandy tracks!
