Bellmere is a rural locality in the City of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2021 census, Bellmere had a population of 6,588 people.[1]

In April 2023, the Queensland Government decided to reflect the growing population of the region by creating five new localities named Corymbia, Greenstone, Lilywood, Wagtail Grove, and Waraba by excising parts of the existing localities of Bellmere, Rocksberg, Upper Caboolture, and Wamuran.[3][4][5] Prior to land redistribution, parts of Corymbia, Wagtail Grove and Waraba were part of Bellmere.[2]
