The 2002 live-action Scooby-Doo movie was filmed mainly in Queensland, Australia, especially at Tangalooma Resort on Moreton Island, with additional shooting in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.

Filming spots

  • Tangalooma Island Resort, Moreton Island, Queensland.
  • Gold Coast, Queensland.
  • Brisbane Airport and other Brisbane-area locations.
  • Village Roadshow Studios in Oxenford, Queensland.

Why it stands out

Tangalooma was used as the real-life base for “Spooky Island,” which is why the setting feels so distinct in the movie. Indoor scenes were also built at the studio, so the film blends real island scenery with set work.

Note

There are other Scooby-Doo films and specials, but if you mean the 2002 movie, the answer is Australia.
