Queensland's regions

Want to be surrounded by natural beauty? How does South East Queensland's long sandy beaches, sparkling islands, lush valleys and mountain views sound? If you'd like to enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle, our sub-tropical climate and 236 sunny days a year should certainly provide sufficient encouragement. What's more, the cost of living in the South East is either comparable to or lower than that of other major urban centres of Australia.

The South East is home to the state's capital, Brisbane, a beautiful city on the river. Brisbane's rapidly growing population has created exciting opportunities in the construction and infrastructure sectors.

Brisbane is a major business hub that attracts global attention, with multinational companies basing their headquarters in the subtropical metropolis.
