Theodolite Creek is a tidal creek located approximately 4 kilometres north of Woodgate in the Bundaberg Region of Queensland, Australia. The creek sits between bushland and the beach, and its coordinates are approximately 25°04′50″S, 152°31′58.1″E.

Access to the water is available via Theodolite Creek Road, where a boat ramp and park area are maintained by Bundaberg Regional Council. The launch area consists of a sandy beach ramp best suited for four-wheel-drive vehicles, with access typically available around half-tide in and half-tide out, making tidal timing an important consideration when planning a launch or retrieval.

The creek is well suited to kayaking, canoeing, and stand-up paddleboarding. Its character is generally calm and relaxed, making it accessible to paddlers of varying experience levels. Wildlife encounters are part of the experience on the water — stingrays have been spotted by paddlers in the area, and the creek's position within a coastal Queensland environment means the surrounding habitat supports a range of aquatic and birdlife. The creek is also noted as a productive fishing location, with species including dusky flathead, barramundi, talang queenfish, and javelin grunter present in the waterway.

The park at the boat ramp provides a base for day trips, with facilities available for picnicking and relaxing. The area sees a mix of uses including recreational boating, swimming, and water skiing alongside paddling, so paddlers should be aware of motorised vessel traffic, particularly on weekends and during warmer months when the area is more popular.

Given its location in coastal subtropical Queensland, conditions are generally more comfortable for paddling during the cooler months from around April through to September, when temperatures are milder. The summer months bring higher humidity and heat, along with the possibility of afternoon storms typical of the region.
