Surburb overview

Yeppoon is a coastal town in Central Queensland, located in the Shire of Livingstone and along the Tropic of Capricorn.

With a tropical climate and beautiful beaches, Yeppoon is renowned for being the gateway to not only Great Keppel Island but the Southern Great Barrier Reef and touts a tropical climate enjoyed by local residents and visitors to the area alike.

A stop along the Capricorn Coast, Yeppoon is situated just 38 kilometres from Rockhampton, making it an easily commutable regional destination and just a flight (or long drive) away from the Queensland capital of Brisbane, with flights operating daily out of Rockhampton Airport. Queensland Rail also offers services between Rockhampton and Brisbane.

With expectations for upwards of 30,000 tourists descending on the suburb (which is the town’s namesake too) each year, Yeppoon is primed for further property growth and presents a prime opportunity for those seeking a solid investment in a coastal location. Alongside tourism, agriculture and lumbering industries support the local economy.

Approximately 7,000 people call this coastal enclave home, with Yeppoon being the largest of a string of villages along the Capricorn Coast. The Livingstone Shire has recently completed work on a community arts centre and significant refurbishment of its water security assets. Upgrades to local roads and the development of a new potable water reservoir are also underway in a bid to future-proof the area’s infrastructure.

The suburb is also serviced by a number of schools: a government primary school, a government secondary school, and two Catholic secondary schools — one for girls and one for boys.

The Livingstone Planning Scheme is set to support growth and manage development across the entire shire all the way through to 2028, while the area offers a mix of apartments, free-standing homes, and residential land for would-be buyers and plays host to a mix of both short (holiday) and long-term rentals.
