Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre
The Boondall Wetlands is a nature conservation area located on the eastern edge of Moreton Bay, between the suburbs of Shorncliffe and Nudgee Beach in south-east Queensland. The area is home to several species of native bird, including the famous kingfisher. The wetlands are protected under a number of legislations and regulations. Visitors to the centre can experience the beauty and serenity of the wetland’s natural environment.
Visitors can walk, cycle or even run through the wetlands in an easy-to-access location. The facility has wide paths and boardwalks, as well as an automatic sliding door. There are accessible toilets and an upgraded car park with designated bus drop-off points. The Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre also offers regular free activities. If you are visiting with the family, make sure to bring a picnic blanket. Browse around this site
The Boondall Wetlands are located on the edge of Moreton Bay, making them the largest wetlands in the city. These wetlands are home to a variety of birds and animals, including mangroves, salt marshes, possums and flying foxes. While you’re here, you can also view 18 Aboriginal art totems.
Whether you’re looking for an eco-friendly activity for the whole family, or want to learn about the wetlands and their history, the Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre is a great place to visit. Located right off the Gateway Motorway, the centre is accessible from all points in the city. You can explore the wetlands’ bird watching platforms and elevated walkways, while learning about the area’s natural and cultural heritage.
The Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre has undergone a major refurbishment worth $5 million. The new visitor centre is air-conditioned, features large windows and is designed with interactive displays. A ‘Great Migration Challenge’ activity encourages visitors to flap their arms like a bird in flight. If you’re travelling with children, consider purchasing one of the many booklets available at the centre.
During the construction of the new centre, Brandi Projects organised the research and design of interpretive displays for the wetlands. The centre includes a $5 million building with an environmentally friendly design and new technology for environmental education. It is designed to inspire the community, tourists, and scientists by using interactive components and sustainable building practices. A large glass window overlooking the wetlands provides the perfect spot to relax and read.
The new signage at the Boondall Wetlands Environmental Centre was created using recycled plastic Brolga Bollards. The tall and elegant profile is complemented by the double-wall construction. The double-wall design also offers strength for the installation. The hollow center of the Bollard makes it light and easy to transport. They also look attractive and stand out against the surroundings.
