Download coordinates as: Yandina (/jænˈdiːnə/) is a rural town and locality in the Sunshine Coast Region, Queensland, Australia.

The name originates from the Kabi language, "yan dhinang" meaning to "cross water by foot", marking the first upstream ford over the Maroochy River.

Legends, bora rings, pathways, grinding grooves, scarred trees and middens provide evidence of occupancy.

The Yandina hotel dates back to 1889 and was relocated using rollers and a bullock team in 1891 when the railway came through town.

Privately owned Koongalba homestead is on the National Heritage List and is one of several historic homes in town.

Yandina was originally planned to be the centre of the shire[11] but as the local sugar mill was built in Nambour, more and more people who worked there moved closer.

In January 1921 the Baptists purchased the former union church in Pomona to relocate it to Railway Street in Yandina.

[16][17] The early timber getters logged beech, cedar, bunya pine and flooded gum.

The fertile land around Yandina has been used for beef and dairy cattle, fruit growing, sugar cane and ginger.

[24] Today, Yandina officially endures as the oldest continuously inhabited town on the Sunshine Coast.

[35] The Sunshine Coast Regional Council operates a mobile library service which visits Stevens Street.

Yandina Station on the Nambour and Gympie North Line has passenger train services to Brisbane.
