Connewarre, Victoria, Australia, is located in southern Australia in an area that is sparsely populated. At the 2006 census, Connewarre and the surrounding area had a population of 78.

Part of Eastern Precinct of the large Armstrong Creek Growth Area was within Connewarre when urban development began in 2010. In 2012, when the new suburb Armstrong Creek was gazetted, Connewarre's boundary was adjusted to exclude the area to the north of Lower Duneed Road and the west of Baenschs Lane, and therefore, all of the Growth Area.

Places near Connewarre include Ant Spit, Breamlea and Lake Connewarre; towns nearest Connewarre are Torquay to the west and Barwon Heads to the east.

History

The Post Office opened on 9 September 1860 and closed in 1967. An earlier Connewarre office was renamed Mount Duneed.^[2]
