Listen to Barney Duffy BBQ, Norfolk’s Newest Attraction: A Barbeque Evening, And A Walk in Fairy Forests

There’s a new evening experience to add to your Norfolk Island holiday, and it’s scrumptious, ethereal and enthralling at the same time. Holidaymakers can pick a combination of the spanking new Barney Duffy BBQ evening, and pair it off with the ‘Wonderland by Night’ late evening tour.

This evening is perfect for groups, large families and friends. So, what’s it all about? In a nutshell, travellers will first stop by the Barney Duffy Grill, for a lip-smacking meal of steak, sausages, mashed potatoes, salads and sides. If you’re piqued by the name, there are two accounts of a convict Barney Duffy, who lived out in the Norfolk wilds for almost seven years, beyond the reach of the law! With the buffet meal, travellers will be regaled by stories of Duffy and other intriguing personalities from the island’s history.

After dinner, travellers will experience the ‘Wonderland by Night’ tour, and they better have their cameras and phones charged up! This breathtaking tour is a walk down the forest trail, lit entirely by trees festooned with fairy lights. Celebrating Norfolk’s old tales and stories, travellers get to walk down beautifully lit forest trails, and examine incredibly detailed dioramas along the way. This enthralling hour-long programme ends at ‘the shed’, where guests can enjoy a hot cup of tea, look upon antique photos and learn more about the island’s original settlers.
