Omeo er et tettsted i Victoria i Australia. Den ligger 402 kilometer øst for delstatshovedstaden Melbourne ikke langt fra skisportsstedet Mount Hotham. Omeo er servicesenter for jordbruksområdene i Tambo- og Omeo-dalene.

Navnet Omeo kommer fra det aborginske ordet for fjell og stedet ble gradvis bosatt av europeiske nybyggere fra 1835.[2] I 1845 ble det funnet gull i området rundt Omeo og gullrushet trakk til seg flere nybyggere.

Stedet har flere historiske bygninger på tross av at det ble rammet av jordskjelv i 1885 og 1892 og skogbrann i 1939.[3]
