You’ve heard of the Bermuda Triangle, but there’s an even more action-packed slice of real estate tucked in plain sight on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. The wedge of land between Noosa Heads, Eumundi, and Coolum Beach encapsulates the very best of the region, and offers a charming mix of diversions from country to coast. You might even call it the ‘Sunshine Coast Triangle!’ Read on to discover all to be found within…
Noosa Heads
A town and bonafide hotspot that needs no introduction, Noosa Heads is the jewel in the Sunshine Coast crown. Home to sensational beaches, dining, shopping, stunning weather, and lush natural surrounds, Noosa is a popular and enjoyable weekender and holiday destination all year round. Eat at iconic diners Sails, Locale, and Bistro C, take a sunrise or sunset hike around the Noosa National Park Headland, and follow it up with a splash in some of the most crystalline waters to be found anywhere in the country.
Eumundi
Just 15 minutes’ inland, Eumundi offers the quaint country counterpoint to Noosa’s glamorous beach vibe. The twice weekly Eumundi Markets held every Wednesday and Saturday morning proffer all manner of artisan wares, from handmade candles and fashion to carved wooden objects and locally produced art. There’s also a delectable array of global eats, atmospheric musical acts, massage and healing stalls, and more. Be sure to stop in for a refreshment at new F&B establishment The Doonan along the way.
Coolum Beach
Family friendly Coolum Beach is a drawcard for multiple reasons, not least standout surfing breaks and outdoor activities aplenty. Hike Mount Coolum, slip n’ slide at inflatable Aqua Park Coolum, take a stroll through the Twilight Markets, play or skate in the multiple beachside parks, or simply hit the stunning beach with the kids or pups in tow.
Peregian Springs
Golf enthusiasts, this one is for you! The world-class Peregian Springs Golf Course makes for verdant and picturesque park-land play for novice, casual or competitive golfers alike. Hit the range or take a round, then finish off at the clubhouse for a well-earned beverage!
Noosaville
Just outside Noosa Heads, this riverside neighbourhood has many worthy drawcards—stand-up paddleboarding, everglade touring, jet-skiing, fishing, and excellent shopping to name but a few. But the brightest and best pitstop of them all is what is arguably the Sunshine Coast’s premier restaurant, Sum Yung Guys. MasterChef alum Matt Sinclair has been dishing up innovative and insanely delicious pan Asian eats since 2017, before upgrading to larger digs in 2021. Don’t miss it.
