Yeppoon’s creativity doesn’t stop at its beaches; it spills onto the walls, car parks and laneways, transforming the town into an open-air gallery. From cheeky murals and seaside tributes, lace up your sneakers, grab a coffee and set off on a self-guided art adventure through Yeppoon.
Must-see stops:
Pie Alley: Once home to a beloved bakery, now a mural-filled laneway painted by father-and-son duo Bill and Luke Gannon, symbolising community spirit and resilience after Cyclone Marcia.
Queen Street Car Park: Yeppoon’s very own multi-storey art gallery. Spot murals of Busby Marou, the Pram Dog, colourful lionfish, classic cars and local birdlife.
Yeppoon Lagoon & Skate Park: Snap vibrant murals inspired by ocean life.
Emu Park Bathing Pavilion: Just 20 minutes from Yeppoon, artist Simon McLean brings the halcyon days of beach bathing to life. Swing by the Post Office to catch Rosie Woods’ colourful cockatoo.
