Spot on for the information re- International Clearance:
If you are an international visitor entering Australia through this port, Australian Customs MUST be notified at least 96 hours before your arrival. Large fines can be imposed if the correct notice is not given.
When vessels are approximately 10 nautical miles out from the Port of Bundaberg, they should call VMR 488 (Volunteer Marine Rescue Bundaberg) on VHF Channel 81. Except you must include that all vessels must have their radios on international and not on US as they will not be able to contact VMR488 if they are still on US.

We stayed in the Bundaberg marina for 2 years from 2016 to 2018 leaving our boat Baringo on the hard standing during the Australian summer. It was excellent. Very helpful staff and good repair work done while on the hard. Facilities were good and very clean. They organise all the formalities on arrival. There is a good restaurant in the marina and fresh fish can be bought directly from the fishing company next door. Highly recommended.

As is always the case it is the people who provide the services and operate the machinery that makes or break a marina. We came into Bundaberg in October 2013 in our Bruce Roberts 53 with a daunting job list involving everything from respraying the top sides, through mechanical work, canvas repair, sanding timber toe rails and galvanizing the anchor chain.
On the hardstand there is no restriction on doing your own work or if you prefer all the necessary skills are readily available. We have lifted and worked on our boat in numerous yards in a whole variety of countries all over the world but never before have we received such skilled, helpful and friendly service right from the management through to the operatives on the ground. The marina is to be complimented on their service, they deserve to do well.

Returning to Australia after a 9 1/2 year circumnavigation we were not looking forward to the alleged complications and expense clearing into Australia (Bundaberg). Nothing could have been further from the truth; we were attended to by very courteous and friendly officials, all done on board in about 1/2 hour and the total cost $330.
Needing groceries the marina then called the manager at the supermarket in nearby Burnett Heads who picked us up in his van, took us to his shop and after finished shopping took us back to the boat via the local liquor store to pick up some beer, how is that for Aussie hospitality! Can thoroughly recommend Bundaberg as a port of entry.
