Burnett Heads, Queensland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Burnett Heads (population 1600) is a town at the mouth of the Burnett River in Queensland, Australia, located 16 km north of the regional city of Bundaberg. The town's most notable feature is its historic timber lighthouse, dating from 1873. The structure, originally sited on South Head (the southern entrance to the Burnett River), was replaced by a modern structure in 1971; the original lighthouse was restored and moved to a local park off Mittelheuser Street.

Burnett Heads is located in the Burnett Shire local government area.
