Founded in the 1890s, Proserpine is the administrative/ service centre and gateway to the Whitsunday region by road, rail and air. Since the late 1800s, cattle grazing and sugar cane have been the economic mainstays for the town. Proserpine is part of the Greater Whitsunday region. The Greater Whitsunday region is as diverse as it is wide, has a proven track record for growth and resilience, and is one of the true economic powerhouse regions in Queensland and Australia.
