However, the larger town of Greenhill is located on the coast of the locality.[4] The Bruce Highway passes through the locality from south to north passing through the town of Ilbilbie. The North Coast railway line passes through the locality from south to north, very close to the highway. The Ilbilbie railway station served the town but is now closed. The Koota railway station is to the south of the town.[5] The land to the east of the highway and railway line is close to the coast and is low-lying land mostly used to grow sugarcane. There is a sugarcane tramway through this area.[4] The land to the west of the highway and railway is more mountainous, rising to 430 metres at Bulls Head Bluff. The West Hill State Forest is in the far west of the locality.[4] HistoryThe town takes its name from a pastoral property named in 1909, being an Aboriginal word meaning plain land, clear of timber. It was previously known as Basin Creek.[1] Ilbilbie Provisional School opened on 14 February 1922 but closed 11 days later due to low student numbers. It reopened on 6 May 1930 as Ilbilbie State School. It finally closed on 14 March 1960.[6] EconomyThe Australian Prawn Farm operates in Ilbilbie and is capable of producing 600 tonne of black prawns (Penaeus monodon) per year.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite QPN|16617|Ilbilbie|town in Isaac Region|accessdate=27 July 2017}} {{Isaac Region}}2. ^{{cite QPN|47020|Ilbilbie|locality in Isaac Region|accessdate=27 July 2017}} 3. ^{{Cite QPN|14777|Greenhill|town in the Isaac Region|accessdate=27 July 2017}} 4. ^1 2 {{Queensland Globe|accessdate=27 July 2017}} 5. ^{{Cite QPN|18502|Koota|railway station in Isaac Region|accessdate=27 July 2017}} 6. ^{{Citation|title=Queensland schools past and present|publication-date=2010|author1=Queensland Family History Society|edition=Version 1.01|publisher=Queensland Family History Society|isbn=978-1-921171-26-0}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2016-10-03/central-queensland-prawn-farm-expands-to-feed-domestic-market/7897550|title=Queensland prawn farm expansion adds significant boost to production|last=Webster|first=Lara|date=20 October 2016|work=ABC News|access-date=27 July 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170727100721/http://www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2016-10-03/central-queensland-prawn-farm-expands-to-feed-domestic-market/7897550|archive-date=27 July 2017|dead-url=no|publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation}} 2 : Towns in Queensland|Isaac Region |
