Tallebudgera and Tallebudgera Valley

Tallebudgera is a rural and rural/residential district in the Gold Coast hinterland. The village centre (primary school and Uniting church) is six km west of Currumbin, and the district extends four km south-west along the Tallebudgera Creek where it joins the rural area of Tallebudgera Valley. It is thought that the name is derived from an Aboriginal expression describing good fish.
