Neighborhoods

Walkable streets, shady parks, riverside strolls and great restaurants & cafes.
Yeronga is peaceful and spacious with acres of green interlocking parks. You can walk for hours barely crossing a road, or follow the river and watch the famously muddy brown reaches snaking slowly down towards the sea. Yeronga Village, walking distance from our house or grab a bus along Fairfield Road, has a great Thai restaurant (Yeronga Thai) where meals are always fresh and affordable.

City Hopper ferries are free and they're gorgeous

Old school, superannuated Brisbane River ferries gain a new lease on life as City Hoppers, zooming back and forth among inner city spots like bees among the flowers. A relaxed and fun ride.

Ride the City Cat under the bridges at night!

Fast, exotic, urban, and modern, the catamaran ride under the high bridges of Brisbane by night is a wonderful experience. From our place you can cross the pedestrian bridge to University of Queensland, hop on a City Cat and zoom on down.
