North Tamborine is a suburb on Tamborine Mountain in South East Queensland.

Many early settlers grew maize and grazed dairy cattle.[1] The first guesthouse on the mountain was open in 1889.[1]

A tourist road to the mountain was completed in 1924.[1] The road brought visitors to the area and the North Tamborine village became the centre for social and business activities.
