The Mackay/Whitsunday Region represents one of Queensland's strongest growth regions. It covers an area in excess of 90,000 km2 which is about 5.2 per cent of the total area of Queensland.
The area is administered by nine local authorities - Peak Downs Shire, Broadsound Shire, Belyando Shire, Bowen Shire, Mirani Shire, Nebo Shire, Mackay City, Sarina Shire and Whitsunday Shire - all strategically located in the heart of Queensland, halfway between Brisbane and Cairns.
The region encompasses Australia’s largest continuous stretch of rainforest, spectacular National Parks, breathtaking mountains and gorges, historic townships, miles of golden beaches, more than 70 tropical islands and, of course the enchanting world of the Great Barrier Reef.
In the west, the region extends into the coal-mining belt of the Bowen Basin, the largest single coal mining area in Australia. Throughout the area the landscape is dotted with cane fields, reflecting the Central Region’s place as Australia’s largest sugar producer.
The Mackay region has an estimated population of more than 124,309 permanent residents and of this number, more than half (78,401) live within the Mackay City Council. Mackay’s population is younger than the State’s average and some of the outer lying mining towns rank among the State’s wealthiest.
