Around 150 years ago, Maryborough was one of Australia's largest and busiest ports. Now Portside offers beautiful open spaces, spectacular river views and a chance to soak up history against a backdrop of glorious colonial architecture.

At the Maryborough Military and Colonial Museum expect the unexpected - the unusual, the quirky and eclectic amongst 4000 items of military and colonial memorabilia, which form displays of exceptional quality. The museum provides a testament to not only those heroes who fought in distant lands to ensure our way of life and prosperity, but also those courageous and determined people who pioneered and progressed the Maryborough area for almost two centuries. The exhibits include 3 Victoria Crosses, a Cross of Valour, many other significant medals, uniforms and period costumes as well as historic vehicles and scale models of ships and planes. For the art lover there is trench art, paintings, murals, wood sculpture and relief carving. Pianists entertain visitors with everything from old wartime favourites to jazz and recent popular music. All this as well as a 2000 book library, primarily of Australian and NZ military history, are housed in a magnificent heritage listed structure built in 1879. Research facilities, including photocopying, are available for family historians. The Museum is part of Maryborough's Portside district which runs from the Brolga Theatre along the Mary River to the Marina and extends out to parts of Kent, Bazaar and March Streets in the CBD. Maryborough's once thriving wharves are long gone, but in their place is an exceptional heritage precinct called Portside - with sensational parklands, museums, restaurants, art galleries, historic pubs, steam train rides and river cruises.

A WIDE RANGE OF PRIVATE GROUP ADVENTURES Now running private Fishing & Diving charters to Lady Musgrave, Lady Elliot and Northwest Island of the southern Great Barrier Reef leaving from Hervey Bay. Jump aboard with Adventure Charters Hervey Bay for the Fishing and Diving experience of a lifetime. Fishing the Sandy Straits and Fraser Island waters is a scenically beautiful experience, one that's made significantly more memorable by hooking up with a hard fighting pelagic or tasty reef fish. You can count on Adventure Charters Hervey Bay to not only safely get you to where the fish are biting but also return to the boat harbour with sore arms and stories to tell.?Why not treat yourself, staff or even a few mates and call us today to arrange the Hervey Bay Waters fishing experience of a lifetime. CUSTOMISED GROUP BOOKINGS Adventure Charters works a little differently to our competitors. Our priority is providing a fulfilling experience out on the water, not filling our back pocket. This is why we don't load the boat with separate groups of people that aren't familiar with each other just to fill seats. Different people have varying expectations and limitations, whereas you and your group have a common goal in mind when you decide to head out on the water.?We'll tailor our programme to suit your requests, whether that is deep sea reef fishing, scuba diving, spear fishing, snorkelling, free diving, exploring or any combination of the lot, we'll cater to you.?Come with us for a day out or escape for a few week, we can make it happen. HOW IT WORKS We charter the vessel and crew at quarter, half, and full day rates. The cost for the charter can be divided between your group of up to 10 passengers. The more people you have, the cheaper your trip can be when you split the cost. If you are wanting more space to yourself, bring less people, we won't fill up the rest of the boat with people you don't know.?Get in touch via our enquiry form or call us and let us know what you'd like to do and leave the rest to us. From there we'll respond with the best itinerary to suit your trip. You can then customise your trip until we achieve the desired outcome which ticks all of the boxes. With a permitted operating area covering the Great Sandy Straights and Southern Great Barrier Reef we can provide you with plenty of choices for your trip.?At the end of the day, you know what you want to do, dream up a plan and we'll handle the logistics to make it happen.
