Fishing, tourism and agriculture support communities such as Maryborough and Tinana. Locals are fond of strolling along the historic Urangan Pier at sunrise to watch stingrays glide beneath the timber pylons and enjoy exploring Maryborough’s hidden laneways, where murals and vintage shops provide a colourful backdrop to weekend coffee dates.
