Flood check, Caloundra

Has Caloundra flooded?

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

  • Sunshine Coast Regional has been disaster-activated for 22 flood, storm or cyclone events since 2007 — most recently Queensland Southern Coast Severe Storms 24-25 November 2025.
  • Nearest flood-warning gauge: Sugarbag Rd Alert, Maroochy basin — 3 km from the centre of Caloundra.

An extent is the official maximum-inundation line for that event. "Reaches into Caloundra" means the mapped line crosses the suburb boundary — most of the suburb may be well clear of it, which is why the address check below matters. Events are listed only where the state or council has mapped this area.
