Wamuran is a rural town and locality in the City of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia.[2][3] In the 2021 census, the locality of Wamuran had a population of 3,374 people.[1]
Wamuran is known for its roadside stalls selling the local produce including strawberries and pineapples.[4]
In April 2023, the Queensland Government decided to reflect the growing population of the region by creating five new localities named Corymbia, Greenstone, Lilywood, Wagtail Grove, and Waraba by excising parts of the existing localities of Bellmere, Rocksberg, Upper Caboolture, and Wamuran.[5][6][7] Prior to land redistribution, Waraba was part of Wamuran.[3]
