Sunshine Coast Information
About Sunshine Coast
After World War II, the Sunshine Coast in Queensland became a premier destination for vacations and surfing trips, and it hasn’t slowed down since. The area is home to calm waters and great surfing waves, resorts and peaceful stretches of beach, so it’s no surprise it’s one of the top destinations for Australians and international travelers alike. Visitors can enjoy the Noosa National Park where Australian wildlife and incredible coastal scenery await. Local markets, water activities, and old remains of volcanoes keep all types of vacationers happy. The Sunshine Coast is the perfect destination for a getaway.
Things to do in Sunshine Coast
The surfing in Australia is some of the best in the world, and along the Sunshine Coast the point at Noosa Main Beach is the place to go. With picturesque scenery, Noosa has been known to produce some rides over 600 feet long. If you’re a beginner, wait until there’s a small swell so you can get a few practice runs in before the big swell brings locals who really know how to ride the waves. For the experienced surfer, try Old Woman Island. It has one of the only reef breaks on the coast. It’s only suitable for very experienced riders and the ride out to the island has sharks, so take a boat there! Little Cove is a calmer area, and is great for beginner and intermediate riders. If none of these sound like what you’re looking for, try one of the other 120+ locations on the Sunshine Coast. The Glass House Mountains provide some of the most spectacular lookout points over the Sunshine Coast. Take a trip into the hinterlands and explore the 20-million-year-old volcanoes that have eroded away, leaving rock spires and formations. Around the mountains you’ll find lush farmland where avocados, strawberries, and nuts are grown. The view from the mountains is unparalleled in the Sunshine Coast, so be sure to make time in your vacation for this. Cotton Tree is one of the most unique places to visit in the Sunshine Coast. To its north is the Maroochy River and to its west lies the Pacific Ocean, making this the perfect place for all types of water sport activities. Scuba dive in the ocean and catch a glimpse of some native fish and underwater plant life, or go kitesurfing and see the beautiful coastline from the water. When you want a break from the activities, head over to the Cotton Tree Markets where you can check out some handmade clothing, toys, art, and sample fresh produce. The markets are open every Sunday from 7am-12pm, so you’ll get an early start on your day.
Day Trips from Sunshine Coast
Noosa National Park is located within South East Queensland and technically on the Sunshine Coast. The park is set on more than 9,800 acres of land and is divided into four sections: Headland, Peregian, Emu Mountain, and East Weyba. Every year, over 1 million visitors come here, making it the most popular national park in all of Australia. With beaches perfect for a lazy swim, rainforests with plants native to Australia, birds unique to the area, and headlands within the park that are ideal for whale watching, there’s no need to wonder why the park is so popular. Take a trip to Noosa and catch a glimpse of vulnerable and endangered wildlife like the glossy black-cockatoo or the wallum froglet or take a walk along some headland hiking trails for a breathtaking view of the shoreline below. Get back in touch with nature with a trip to Noosa National Park.
Sunshine Coast Accommodations
With over 2,700 vacation rentals in the Sunshine Coast to choose from, Tripping.com can provide any traveler with the perfect accommodation. Stay in the northern portion of the Sunshine Coast to be close to Noosa Main Beach and Noosa National Park. Or, choose a rental near Maroochydore to be in the heart of the Sunshine Coast. Choose from apartments with ocean views or in a waterfront resort where everything will be taken care of during your vacation.
Transportation in Sunshine Coast
If you’re coming from out of the country, take a flight into Melbourne or Sydney and get a connecting flight to Sunshine Coast Airport. From there, a rental car is recommended to get to your accommodations and it will be of use when exploring the coast and neighboring towns. You’ll want the car if you choose to visit the Glass House Mountains, because although there is a bus system that will take you there, it will take about double the time as it would by car.
