Attraction

Hervey Bay Historical Village & Museum

The Historical Village is much bigger than it looks from the front. There are over 2 ½ acres to wander around and we advise visitors to allow at least 2 hours to fully view everything. Allow more time on Sunday afternoons when they do their demonstrations. In 2006, 2007 and 2008, the museum won the “Heritage & Cultural Tourism” category of the Fraser Coast & South Burnett Tourism Awards and in 2009, they were inducted into the “Hall of Fame”. There are now 27 buildings housing  37 displays with over 12000 exhibits, some  dating back to the 19th century. A new covered BBQ area  is available for visitors to use including two electric BBQ's and hot water facilities. Tour groups are also welcome to use these facilities if they wish to organise a morning tea or lunch for their group.  Blacksmith, Corn Shelling and Rope Making demonstrations are held every Sunday and whenever Adult or School groups visit. Their new Fire Station houses a 1932 restored Dennis Fire Engine and they also have a new Cobblers and Barbers Shops displays.

The Esplanade is a 17 km pathway along the beach front spanning across several suburbs including Urangan, Shelly Beach, Scarness, Torquay, Point Vernon and Pialba. This is the perfect place to enjoy a bike ride featuring stops at restaurants, cafes and shops through Hervey Bay, admiring the scenery. The path is very good not only for biking, but also for walking or running, but the Esplanade tour ends by biking on the beach.
