Drive a Hire Car in Proserpine

Settled in the late 19th century, Proserpine was named after the Greek goddess of fertility as the lands were so good for growing crops. The town soon flourished, and this can be seen in the remaining art deco style buildings which were built by the wealthy local sugar farmers in the 1920s and 30s. To learn a little about the local history, drive your hire car to Proserpine Historical Museum, where you will find excellent displays and exhibits showing the origins and development of the area.

Local lakes and rivers also make Proserpine a popular destination for water sports in the region. For a great day of fun on the water, head west in your rental car and visit Lake Proserpine, also known as Peter Faust Dam. The lake is famous for big game fishing, with plenty of keen anglers trying their luck to catch a monster.

Many visitors flying into Proserpine are en route to the Whitsunday Islands, which are a must if you are travelling in the area. Drive east from Proserpine towards Airlie Beach or Shute Harbour from where boats regularly depart. Park your hire car near one of the marinas, and head out on a boat to see the amazing islands, packed with amazing beaches and opportunities for spectacular snorkelling and diving.

Weather you plan to tour the beaches along the coast, or simply bunk up in a cosy hillside retreat, your hire car will give you the freedom to get around the area with ease and comfort, and without the hassles of expensive taxis, shuttle buses and tour groups.
