Biloela – laidback lifestyle and friendly community

Situated in Central Queensland, Banana's Shire's largest town and Council's administration centre is in Biloela, 120 kilometres west of the coastal industrial city and port of Gladstone and similarly an easy drive to the regional hub of Rockhampton.

Biloela is a busy commercial and tourist hub, though it still retains that relaxed, country feeling. Everyone says ‘G'day' with a smile and a nod as you walk down the wide streets of Biloela. You're never a stranger for long. It's friendly, warm and welcoming.

For those with a hankering for the great outdoors, a short journey leads to a multitude of adventures at Kroombit Tops National Park ranging from 2WD to 4WD access. Alternatively, your adventure may be family camping, fishing and boating fun, whiling away the days on the banks of the Callide Dam.
