Sunshine Beach

A mecca for Sufers & Families

About the area

Next door to the holiday haven of Sunrise Beach, you’ll find the equally as delightful Sunshine Beach.

Located about 4km southeast of Noosa Heads, Sunshine Beach is perfect getaway spot for families, friends and romantic getaways. The local village atmosphere is alive and bustling with its plethora of cafes, shops and bars.

Sunshine Beach backs directly on to the stunning Noosa National Park. Imagine winding your way through the lush rainforest along one of the walking tracks and right onto the buzz of iconic Hastings Street. From there, head to the famous Sunshine Beach Surf Club and visit the well-loved and patrolled open surf beach.

Plus, the accommodations at Sunshine beach have the perfect vantage points for an enchanting whale-watching experience during the migration season!

Things to do

Beach

With 15 kilometres of white sand accessible from Sunshine Beach, frolicking seaside will be an inevitable pastime. Head north and you’ll find a coastal walk that leads to Alexandria Bay, among other caves and coves, or head south Castaways or Peregian if you’re feeling energetic.

Restaurants

You won’t get the smorgasbord of fine-dining restaurants to choose from in Sunshine Beach like you do in Noosa Heads, but that’s hardly an issue when you’re living like a local. Indulge in a well-plated breakfast at Jam Cafe, enjoy a Middle Eastern meal at Humble or sip a freshly squeezed juice at The Deck.

Unwinding

If lying about reading a book in your Sunshine Beach accommodation has you craving even more relaxation, rest assured it’s within easy reach. Indulge in a facial at Organica by Peregian Beach, take a trip to the award winning Ikatan Day Spa for a full day of pampering, or make the most of the hydromassage pool at Noosa Springs Spa.
