Hunchy is a suburb in the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. Situated in the foothills of the Blackall Range, Hunchy was first called Hunchback.[2] At the 2011 Australian Census the suburb recorded a population of 524.[1]

There is farming within the area with crops such as pineapples, lychees, macadamias, mangoes, bananas,[3] citrus, avocados and a small quantity of coffee beans grown.
