Yeppoon, Coastal town in Queensland, Australia

Yeppoon extends along the Capricorn Coast with sandy beaches and shallow coves, positioned 41 kilometers from Rockhampton in eastern Australia.

The Ross family established the first European settlement in 1865 on the traditional lands of the Darumbal Aboriginal people in the Capricorn Coast region.

The town maintains several heritage sites, including the Yeppoon railway station and War Memorial, while hosting monthly Fig Tree Markets for local artisans.

Visitors access Yeppoon through Rockhampton Airport, which receives regular flights from Brisbane, with connecting bus services to the coastal area.

The location creates an intersection where tropical and temperate species of plants and birds meet, making it notable for naturalists and researchers.
