Welcome to the Sunshine Coast...

If you're dreaming of the Australian icons of sun, sea, surf and sand, Queensland's Sunshine Coast epitomises these images as well as anywhere else. Beautiful beaches, fashionable suburbs and the laid-back lifestyle sum up everything Aussie.

Just over an hours drive north of Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast consists of golden beach upon golden beach. Beginning at Caloundra in the south and stretching north through Mooloolaba, Alexandra Headland, Maroochydore and Coolum, the coastal strip is crowned by the ultra fashionable resort of Noosa, a famous surfing mecca since the early 1960's. Accommodation, dining, and activity choices are many and varied, ensuring an easy and enjoyable stay in this friendly holiday playground.

Although the beach culture is the region's main attraction, the Sunshine Coast has plenty more to offer. Running parallel to the coast, the spectacular scenery of the hinterland makes an excellent diversion from the sun and surf. At the foothills and hidden within the Glass House Mountains and Blackall ranges, the picturesque villages and towns of the coast interior have gone craft crazy, and are just waiting to be explored.
