From its source, the Mary River flows north through the towns of Kenilworth, Gympie, Tiaro and Maryborough before emptying into the Great Sandy Strait, a passage of water between the mainland and Fraser Island, near the town of River Heads, south of Hervey Bay. The Mary River flows into the Great Sandy Strait, near wetlands of international significance recognised by the International agreement of the Ramsar Convention and thr UNESCO Fraser Island World Heritage Area, which attracts thousands of visitors every year. Notable river crossings include the Dickabram Bridge, the Granville Bridge at Maryborough, and the Lamington Bridge. From source to mouth, the Mary River is joined by nineteen tributaries, including the Tinana Creek, Munna Creek, Obi Obi Creek, Yabba Creek, Wide Bay Creek and the Susan River. The river descends over its course.〔 The river's catchment area is and is bounded by the Conondale, Jimma and Burnett Ranges.
