Bowen has been very busy in the school holidays with the Visitor Information Centre reporting a bumper start to the two-week break.
On Monday alone, the staff and volunteers welcomed more than 350 people to the centre.
Manager of Bowen Tourism and Business, Leanne Abernethy said a lot of people were staying in Bowen but there were also a lot of day-trippers from Airlie Beach.
“The Big Mango is always an attraction during the school holidays,” she said.
“There has also been a lot of families traveling north to go home after taking part in the Paul Bowman under 9’s rugby league carnival in Proserpine on the weekend.
“It’s great to see so many people visiting our hidden gem at the top of the Whitsundays with eight secluded beaches, great bushwalks, a free water park for the kids, an historic jetty and the oldest cinema in Queensland.
“We pride ourselves on our country hospitality, so you won’t be disappointed if you decide to make a trip to Bowen in the holidays.
“And, of course, we have a great range of local produce and Bowen merchandise at the Visitor Information Centre, as well as delicious mango sorbet on offer.”
There are so many things to do in Bowen, it is not just a place to pass through for lunch.
It is definitely worth considering spending more time in Bowen these school holidays.
