Overview

Ellerbeck is a quiet coastal locality in the Cassowary Coast Region of Queensland, home to 207 residents according to the 2021 census. Bordered by Attie Creek and spilling out to the Coral Sea, the eastern fringe sits within Girramay National Park while the remainder blends crop‑growing, native‑vegetation grazing and modest rural residential properties. A tropical monsoon climate gives the area warm, humid summers and a laid‑back, nature‑focused lifestyle.

The Bruce Highway and the North Coast railway line cut through the locality, providing easy road links to Cardwell and Kennedy, although the former Ellerbeck railway station is now abandoned. Residents enjoy a council‑managed boat ramp on Meunga Creek and a nearby waste‑transfer station at Cardwell, while primary schooling is available in Cardwell and Kennedy and secondary education is offered in Tully.
