Overview

Valdora is a rural locality on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, with a 2021 census population of 776 residents. The name, derived from Val d’Ora (“Golden Valley”), reflects its long‑standing agricultural roots, originally a cattle run, later expanding to timber, fruit, dairying and still‑active sugarcane farms. The Yandina‑Coolum Road skirts the eastern edge, providing straightforward access to neighbouring towns and the coastal corridor.

Community amenities include the council‑run Sunshine Coast Solar Farm, a 15 MW site that supplies the region’s electricity, and the Valdora‑Yandina Creek Rural Fire Station. While Valdora has no schools of its own, primary and secondary options are available in North Arm, Coolum Beach, Yandina and Nambour. The mix of working farms and rural residential properties offers a relaxed countryside lifestyle within easy reach of coastal services.
