2 Mile Rocks is a nearshore rocky reef formation off the coast of the Wide Bay & Bundaberg region, situated in the southern Great Barrier Reef marine park area. This spot offers snorkelers a chance to explore submerged basalt rock structures that attract fish and coral growth. Located near the Port of Bundaberg approaches, this lesser-known site provides a more secluded snorkeling experience away from the main reef tourism hubs. Best accessed by private boat from nearby launch points like Burnett Heads.
