Gladstone
The Region of Choice
With such a diverse range of environmental beauty and outdoor recreation at our fingertips and boasting prosperous industry we have a truly unique location in which to live, work and play.
Just 550 kilometres north of Brisbane and located just south of the Tropic of Capricorn, Gladstone residents enjoy an abundance of sunshine, outdoor lifestyle, year round swimming and an abundance of recreation opportunities.
With Queensland’s northernmost surf beach, the Great Barrier Reef and pristine tropical islands right on our doorstep, this Region is a very liveable alternative to the rush and bustle of larger Cities.
The southernmost tip of the Great Barrier Reef is just a stone’s throw from the mainland and is internationally renowned for its untouched, colourful and varied ecosystems.
Take your pick of a wide range of activities to explore this remarkable part of the reef. Relax at your dream island resort or take a day trip to swim, snorkel or dive amongst the reef’s most spectacular residents.
