Experience Sunshine Coast Our favourite things to see and do Australia Zoo – With plenty of wildlife action every day, including exciting croc shows, knowledgeable zoo keepers to chat with and lots of drop-dead gorgeous animals who can’t wait to get up close and personal with you. Hinterland – Stretching from the World Heritage-listed Glass House Mountains, through the Blackall Range and up to the scenic Mary Valley. This part of the coast is home to stunning views, rainforest walks, fresh produce, local wines, fine arts and crafts. © Tourism Queensland Markets – Head to one of the local, hinterland or seaside markets. Stock up on local produce, specialty fare and original creations. ‘Make it, bake it, grow it or sew it’ is the ethos of the famous Eumundi Market. Caloundra Coastal Path – Follow the 25 kilometre coastal path from Golden Beach in the south to Point Cartwright in the north, passing through spectacular scenery of lakes, creeks and surf beaches. Noosa National Park – A short walk from Noosa’s Hastings Street is the Noosa National Park. Spot koalas dozing in the trees, swim or surf at coves and beaches found around the scenic headlands, and retreat into the cool forests of the inland tracks. Coolum Boardwalk – Take a wander along the Coolum Boardwalk and you’ll reach Point Perry, a small headland that gives you great views of the coast right up to Noosa. It’s also one of the best land based whale watching spots – the season is June to October. Golf – Tee off against spectacular scenic backdrops at one of the Sunshine Coast’s championship golf courses. Choose from Greg Norman-designed Pelican Waters Golf Club, Twin Waters or Hyatt Regency Coolum – home of the Australian PGA championship, Peregian Springs (members only) and Noosa Springs Golf Resort and Spa.
