Wandilo is a north-western suburb of Mount Gambier in the Australian state of South Australia. It was named after the railway station on the Mount Gambier railway line, and is recorded to mean "a swamp where native companions resort".[3]

Mount Gambier Airport is located in this suburb.

Wandilo is located within the federal division of Barker, the state electoral district of Mount Gambier and the local government area of the District Council of Grant.[5][4][1] It is also part of Mount Gambier's urban sprawl.
