Lady Musgrave HQ Pontoon
A must-do when visiting Bundaberg, Lady Musgrave HQ is a new three-level pontoon nestled in the sheltered waters of Lady Musgrave Island Lagoon on the Southern Great Barrier Reef.
The bespoke 35 metre by 12 metre build provides independent snorkel and dive platforms, as well as seamless access to high-speed dive boats, the glass bottom boat and the luxury catamaran Reef Empress.
A core attraction for day guests and overnight visitors alike is the underwater observatory. View marine life and the corals by day, and by night enjoy liveaboard-style bunk accommodation for
groups of 10-20, where you can fall asleep viewing the abundant underwater marine life. This overnight option is perfect for dive groups or school groups. Guests also have the option to sleep above the surface in a Queen Glamping Bed under the stars.
Overnight stays include VIP transfers in the Captain's Premium Lounge on our luxury catamaran departing Bundaberg Port Marina, meals, activities and snorkeling equipment. Enjoy breakfast, lunch and a three-course dinner prepared by our onboard Chef, showcasing local and seasonal produce with unbeatable reef views.
The pontoon features the most sustainable and eco-friendly build in the world. Above the waterline, the innovative zero-impact design is completely solar and wind-powered, and below the waves, coral cultivation and Citizen Science programs give back to the world's greatest natural treasure.

JC and the Tree create brilliant soundscapes that elevate you into timeless visions of all things connected to nature and the world beyond. Inspired by their hometown of Sunshine Coast, this indie-folk duo writes melodies about all things from the mountains to the sea and life between. The heartfelt violin playing from JC soars as the warm rich tones of the Tree set a benchmark that transcends the ordinary music lovers ear. Their voices blend beautifully in harmony as they play their range of original indie/folk tunes. Pushing boundaries they take their audiences on a journey through genres including gypsy/spanish violin pieces, folk/metal rock songs, funky wah-wah violin grooves and soulful piano ballads. Music is a language beyond words and JC and the Tree are inspired to use it as a tool to bring all walks of life together.
JC and the Tree only formed mid 2019 but have already performed at various well-known festivals such as Woodford Folk Fest, Caloundra Music Festival, Palm Creek, Wallaby Creek and Wintermoon.
