Geography
Calavos is low-lying farming land to the south of the city of Bundaberg. The Elliott River forms its southern boundary and the locality is well-watered by a number of creeks that are tributaries of the river. The predominant land use is growing sugarcane; there is a network of cane tramways to carry the harvest to the sugar mills.[3]
There is a prawn farm operating on the northern bank of the river. Established in 1996, it produced its first harvest of black tiger prawns in 1997.[4]
