Newlands is a rural locality in the Whitsunday Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2021 census, Newlands had a population of 99 people.[1]
Starvation Creek enters from Eungella Hinterland to the east, and flows north-west to become the Bowen River. A branch of the creek forms part of the north-eastern boundary, and the river forms much of the northern boundary. The Newlands coal mine is in the south of the locality.[3]
The Bowen Developmental Road (State Route 77) runs through from north to south-west.
