Moffat Beach

Moffat Beach

Distance from prize home: 10 minute drive

Caloundra is a gem on the southern end of the Sunshine Coast, and Moffat Beach is one of its hidden treasures. The off-leash section here allows dogs to roam and explore to their heart's content. Moffat Beach is great for active dogs, as the waves are gentle, perfect for a swim or a game of fetch in the water. The beach itself has a relaxed, community vibe, with plenty of cafes nearby that are dog-friendly, so after you’ve tired out your pup, you can grab a coffee (try The Pocket Espresso) and a bite to eat (dogs are welcome at the Moffat Beach Brewery Co. Beachside if you fancy pub grub with live music and seaside breezes!). Just keep in mind that not all areas of Moffat Beach are off-leash at all times, so make sure to stick to the designated areas to keep your day worry-free.

Wurtulla Beach

Wurtulla Beach

Distance from prize home: 1 minute walk

A visit to Wurtulla Beach with your pooch will become part of your daily routine when you live in our Mater Prize Home. Mere metres from your home, this beautiful dog-friendly spot offers a long stretch of sand that’s perfect for an off-leash adventure. This beach is particularly well-suited for dogs who love to explore, as the adjacent bushland offers a variety of sights and smells for your dog to discover. With its laid-back atmosphere and fewer crowds, Wurtulla is a great go-to for a more relaxed beach day. The waves are gentle, making it a good swimming spot for you and your dog to paddle together, and the views are stunning. When you’ve had your fix of sandy fun, all you have to do is wander on home via foot and let your dog into your private outdoor shower space to the right of the front door for a rinse. No sandy car seats or muddy footprints through the house!

Dog on Beach

Bokarina Beach

Distance from prize home: 3 minute walk

One of the newer additions to the Sunshine Coast's dog-friendly beach line-up, Bokarina Beach is a slice of paradise. With its white sands and clear blue waters, this beach offers plenty of space for dogs to run off-leash and explore. Bokarina is less crowded compared to many other beaches in the area, making it a perfect choice for those looking to escape the busy beaches. It’s a particularly great spot for an early morning or late afternoon visit, as the sunrise and sunset views here are breathtaking. The beach is also popular with local dog owners, so you’re likely to meet other pups enjoying a day in the sun. There are even water stations along the walking path for a quick refresh for both you and your pet.

Mudjimba Beach

Mudjimba Beach

Distance from prize home: 24 minute drive

For those who love quiet, uncrowded beaches, Mudjimba Beach is a fantastic choice. Tucked between the bustling centres of Maroochydore and Coolum, this beach is a peaceful retreat for dogs and their owners. The designated off-leash area stretches for kilometres, giving your dog plenty of space to run and play. Mudjimba Beach is perfect for dogs that love long walks or chasing a frisbee in the surf. The wide expanse of sand and gentle waves also make it an ideal spot for dogs who may be a little more timid around water. You can also enjoy a leisurely picnic by the dunes, making it a perfect beach day for both you and your canine companion to spend some quality time together.

Noosa Spit

Noosa Dog Beach (Spit Reserve)

Distance from prize home: 52 minute drive

It may be the furthest to travel to, but your loyal friend will love coming along for a sunny road trip with you up the coast to check out the Noosa Spit Recreation Reserve. Noosa is one of the Sunshine Coast’s most famous spots, and it has a wonderful dog-friendly area tucked away from the bustling crowds of Main Beach. Located at the far end of Hastings Street, the Noosa Spit Reserve is a haven for dogs. It's an off-leash beach where your dog can run free, swim, and play with other dogs, making it a perfect destination for socialising your pup. The wide open space and shallow water make it ideal for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Plus, you’ll enjoy stunning views of the Noosa River mouth and the pristine coastal environment. Bring along some beach chairs and enjoy a relaxing day by the water while your furry companion enjoys the beach lifestyle.
