Tuan is a very small town east of Maryborough in Queensland. It lies on the shores of the Great Sandy Strait, which is the body of water separating the mainland from Fraser Island.

Neil and Jane Hearn operate a brand new B & B in Tuan called "Sealandings" which is designed to provide quality accomodation to those wishing to explore the lower middle part of the Great Sandy Straits.

Secure boat storage is available, along with wash down facilities, and the boat ramp is just metres away. The Great Sandy Strait is then accessed via a serpentine exit which can test your navigational skills at low tide!

The breakfasts are wonderful - especially if you have been up half the night fishing; the afternoon teas ..... well we were never there for afternoon tea, but we hear they are good too!

There are other things to do - Tuan is a great base for day trips to Gympie, Rainbow Beach, Maryborough and Hervey Bay itself. There's also a Tennis Court, Golf, and many options for people into bird watching or bushwalking.

So if you are a fisherman/woman looking for a place to escape - no mobile phones (what a luxury these days!); the BEST hosts; beautiful surrounds; and only 3-4 hours from Brisbane, then this place is very hard to beat.
