Bulimba Creek is a waterway in Brisbane, Queensland, that flows through a mix of forest, freshwater wetlands, and estuarine wetlands before connecting to the Brisbane River system near Aquarium Passage. The creek passes through areas including Carina and Bulimba, offering paddlers a route through urban and semi-natural environments.

The primary access point for paddlers is off Meadowlands Road in Carina, where parking is available and water access is via a jetty adjacent to the bridge at Preston Road Park (276 Meadowlands Road, Carina). A pontoon is located at this site specifically on Bulimba Creek. The lower reaches near Aquarium Avenue also have a boat ramp, though paddlers using that area should be aware of shallow sections and submerged snags, which require careful navigation.

The creek passes by Minnippi Wetlands, which is a notable point of interest along the canoe trail. The broader catchment supports freshwater and estuarine wetland ecosystems. Wildlife encountered during paddles has included mullet and snakes. The Bulimba Creek Catchment Coordinating Committee (B4C), a community group formed in 1997, works to protect and restore the creek's environment.

Water quality is a consideration on this waterway. Debris including syringes, spray cans, polystyrene foam, and other waste has been found in the creek, reflecting the urban catchment it drains. Paddlers should be prepared for muddy conditions, particularly in the lower sections where tidal mud can be significant. One account of a longer paddle on the creek described approximately 35 kilometres covered in a day, suggesting the creek offers considerable length for those willing to explore it fully.

The AllTrails listing for the Bulimba Creek Canoe Trail has received four reviews, indicating it is a known but relatively niche paddling destination. The Bulimba Creek Catchment Coordinating Committee can be contacted at (07) 3398 8003 for further information about the waterway and its condition.
