An exciting and unique part of Queensland; the Gladstone Region encompasses the Southern Great Barrier Reef of the Discovery Coast, the hinterland of the Banana and the burgeoning areas of the Gladstone City and surrounds.
The Gladstone Region is a unique area of Australia, where both tourism and major industry co-exist in harmony.
The Gladstone Region is synonymous with industrial growth. From the 1960’s we have been recognised as an industrial hub, due in no small part to our excellent harbour and availability of services, transport systems and raw materials.
Our regional industries operate around the clock and employ several thousand people, providing a sound economic base for the region.
The Gladstone Region now represents almost a quarter of Queensland's wealth and just of 4% of Australia's wealth. Therefore our region's standing as one of Australia's most important economic hubs is justified.
Gateway to the majestic and vibrant Southern Great Barrier Reef, fantastic fishing hotspots, amazing country adventures and pure national parks; whatever you are after, you’ll find it here.
