If you’re looking for a hidden gem on the Sunshine Coast, Wurtulla is the perfect place to call home.
The local beach is a well-kept secret hotspot
The Sunshine Coast may be best known for its iconic beaches like Noosa and Mooloolaba, but you’ll be glad Wurtulla Beach’s beauty hasn’t captured the eye of the masses. Patrolled, peaceful, and the perfect place to surf or take your pooch for an off-leash run, one of Wurtulla’s most appealing features is its pristine beach. Unlike some of the more popular beaches on the Sunshine Coast, Wurtulla Beach remains a hidden gem, offering a peaceful retreat for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle. The beach’s wide stretch of sand and rolling waves make it great for early morning walks, a relaxing day by the water, or an evening picnic while watching the sun go down. Just a mere 40 metres away from home, you also get direct access to the beach with our latest prize home. More often than not, you’ll feel like you have the whole shoreline to yourself here!
You also have a stunning lake nearby
You’re near the beach in Wurtulla, but also a lake. Just a short drive from Wurtulla is Currimundi Lake, a popular spot for families and outdoor enthusiasts to get another hit of waterside fun. This tidal lake is ideal for a day out on the water: it will be your go-to spot for kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and swimming. The calm waters are perfect for children to splash around on the shore, too.
The surrounding parklands at Currimundi Lake mean you can take a break from the water and recharge with a picnic or barbecue, or enjoy leisurely walks along the scenic trails. Birdwatchers will appreciate the diverse birdlife that inhabits the area, and in spring, wildflowers are in full bloom. Currimundi Lake is also a popular spot for fishing, with bream, flathead, and whiting on the menu.
The area has an undeniable natural beauty
If you feel like staying dry then swap out a beach or lakeside day for a hike through the Kawana Forest Bushland Reserve. The peaceful surroundings of the reserve offers a great escape from the stresses of daily life. This expansive reserve is home to a variety of walking and cycling trails that wind through lush forests and tranquil wetlands. The trails are well-maintained and suitable for all fitness levels. The reserve’s rich biodiversity includes native flora and fauna, making it a wonderful spot for nature walks, birdwatching, and photography.
You’re only minutes from the local sporting grounds
Nothing beats the atmosphere of watching your favourite sport live. You’ll soon find yourself barracking for any and every Sunshine Coast team when you make the move to Wurtulla thanks to your close proximity to the Sunshine Coast Stadium. Located just a short drive away, this stadium is the heart of the region’s sporting events and entertainment. From rugby league and soccer matches to concerts and community events, there’s always something happening at the stadium.
A good meal is never far away
Our Mater Prize Home’s stunning kitchen may give you a newfound love of cooking, but there’s sure to be some days when you’d rather leave it up to the pros. Luckily, Wurtulla has a variety of delicious dining options close by that cater to all tastes. For those who enjoy Italian cuisine, Bocca Italian is a must-visit. This local favourite is known for its authentic dishes, including wood-fired pizzas, handmade pastas, and fresh seafood. The cosy atmosphere and friendly service make it a great spot for a casual dinner or a special celebration. If you’re in the mood for a laid-back vibe and some craft beer, head over to Your Mates Brewing Co. Located nearby in Warana, this brewery is famous for its range of craft beers, including the popular ‘Larry’ pale ale. The brewery’s relaxed atmosphere, live music, and delicious food offerings make it a perfect spot for a weekend hangout with friends. Good to know: Kids eat free on Mondays!
