New Speed Limit For Lake Proserpine

Whitsunday Water Police have revised and are now enforcing a new six-knot speed limit in Lake Proserpine.

This new speed limit is in waters adjacent to the public use area, extending from the shoreline of the dam’s heavy use area out to approximately 100 metres.

The new six-knot speed limit applies to all vessels, including jet skis and other personal watercraft.

All water users are urged to follow the new speed limit, with penalties up to $365 applying.
