Sunshine Coast

Queensland's Sunshine Coast is a unique and varied destination where fun, nature and relaxation are the key ingredients. Families, couples, singles and international visitors alike have made the Sunshine Coast their first holiday accommodation choice for years.

The Sunshine Coast starts around Caloundra and extends to Noosa in the north, the gateway to Fraser Island. It also extends inland to the beautiful and peaceful hinterland which includes the Blackall Range, Noosa Hinterland and the Glass House Mountains.

There is something for everyone on the Sunshine Coast - stunning beaches, clear warm water, surfing, fishing and boating. The Coast is unspoilt but cosmopolitan, where five star resorts are in harmony with pristine rainforests and wetland sanctuaries. And it's all just over an hour's drive from Brisbane, Queensland's state capital and international gateway. With its glorious climate and beautiful beaches, you are pretty much guaranteed the ideal beach holiday.
