Recorded flood extents — Bargara

No historic flood extent has been mapped for the Bargara area by the state or the council.

  • Bundaberg Regional has been disaster-activated for 17 flood, storm or cyclone events since 2007 — most recently Southern Queensland Flooding, 6 - 20 May 2022.
  • Nearest flood-warning gauge: Burnett Heads Tide Tm, Burnett basin — 10 km from the centre of Bargara.

The disaster-activation history covers the whole Bundaberg council area. The recorded-extent lines above are tested against Bargara's own boundary — Bundaberg's suburb with the most activity here — because an extent reaching one suburb doesn't mean it reaches another. Find your own suburb's record below.
