The team at the Bowen Visitor Information Centre have been very busy this week with the Queensland school holidays now underway.
Manager of Bowen Tourism and Business, Leanne Abernethy said there was a significant increase in visitor numbers as soon as the school holidays started.
“We had been averaging about 115 visitors per day for December, but we had 155 people come to the centre on Monday alone and that was at the start of the holidays,” shared Leanne.
“The rest of the week has continued to be busy - most of the visitors have been from Queensland and we have also noticed a lot of locals calling in to grab a copy of the 2025 Bowen calendar.”
The 13-month calendars are on sale at the Bowen Visitor Information Centre for just $20 each and feature the talented photography of both local photographer Jack Collins and renowned photographer Mark Fitz.
“This is the third year that we have produced the calendar, and it is always very popular,” added Leanne.
“The calendar for 2025 features beaches, the lighthouse, mango trees and other landmarks.”
The centre is open seven days a week – 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday and then 10am-3pm on the weekends and will be closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day
