A tour of the Brisbane Airport and Boondall Wetlands

This tour has been arranged in two parts:

• Brisbane Airport by bus
• Boondall Wetlands Environmental Centre by personal vehicles

The bus will leave from Eagle Junction (Stop 27, Park Av) at 9.30 am to be at the airport by 10.00 am.

At the Airport, we will go ‘behind the scenes’ to learn about the operation of one of Australia’s fastest growing airports. Interesting, informative and fully guided, these tours are great for those interested in the fascinating world of aviation.

We return to EJ about 12.30 pm and transfer to our private vehicles.  For participants who have travelled to EJ by public transport, carpooling will be arranged.

We can have a picnic lunch at Nudgee Beach or the Boondall Wetlands Environmental Centre (BWEC).

AT BWEC, there will be a talk by one of the Rangers at 2.00 pm, followed by a walk on boardwalk and gravel track through the Wetlands, which adjoin Moreton Bay Marine Park which is listed as a Wetland of International Importance.  Expect to see migratory shore birds which have flown from the Northern Hemisphere,

We will return to EJ by 3.30-4.00.

Cost will be $25 per person for members, $30 for non-members. Limit of 20 participants.

Remember to bring a picnic lunch, water bottle, wind jacket, sunhat, sunscreen, camera and binoculars.
