sunshine coast news

"Sunshine Coast starts just north of Brisbane and continues north along the Queensland coast until the magnificent Cooloola National Park. There are some great places to visit along this section of coastline, and some splendid National Parks which you can enjoy."
"Sunshine Coast Area: 3130 square kilometres. To get an idea of the size of this coastal area, it stretches along approximately 65km's of sandy beaches and headlands, from Caloundra in the south, to Noosa which is located about 90kms north (1.5 hour drive) of Brisbane. Population: The current population base of the Sunshine Coast is approximately 330,000 (as of March 2010) making it Australia's 10th largest area for population although with the long stretches of sand and acres of bushland it is hard to believe."

"A seaside region called the Sunshine Coast lies around 100 kilometers north of Brisbane, Queensland's capital. The Sunshine Coast is made up of a series of smaller towns and localities along the coast, with smaller centers peppered in between. From south to north, they include Bribie Island, Caloundra, Mooloolabah, Maroochydore, Coolum, and Noosa. With its forested mountains and breathtaking views of the shore, the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, which is situated inland and above a mountain range, is another well-liked vacation destination. Several locations, including the Glass House Mountains, Montville, and Maleny, are close to the well-known coastal strip."
"Few of the Sunshine Coast's hinterland retreats are as alluring as this serene forested area. The Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve, located amidst the undulating Blackall Range, is a great place to indulge in some woodland bathing. Take a moment to pause, breathe in the fresh, crisp air, listen to the sounds of the forest, and observe the numerous birds and local marsupials. The views are fantastic, and in the distant you can see the Glass House Mountains. It is nearby Maleny, a quaint township with a farmers market, cheesemaker, and microbrewery where you can fill up on all the necessities!"

"Whether you?re digging into fish ?n? chips on the foreshore, dipping in and out of the azure waters or lazing on the sand with a good book, life?s a beach here on the Sunshine Coast. And true to its name, there's plenty of sunshine and coastline to choose from ? 100km worth to be precise. At one end of the scale is Noosa, a resort town of white-sand beaches and a mix of sheltered swimming and surf spots. At the other end is the Great Sandy National Park, perfect for getting away from it all with beach camping and ocean fishing."
The Sunshine Coast is undisputedly the fastest growing region in Australia and the local property market has seen tremendous capital growth over the last decade. While the 'Sunny Coast' has more than its fair share of gorgeous beaches and a laid back lifestyle it also has the full suite of modern amenities and infrastructure you'd expect from a decent city; so to many in the southern states (and even in Brisbane) it's the perfect place for a sea change.

"Sunshine coast is the birthplace of the beach party: catching rays, surfing, and just chilling out, the shire is happy to offer a more relaxed pace and atmosphere than the high-paced city life of the Gold Coast hinterland. Many of the activities you can enjoy here are relatively relaxed, but there are other free things to do that are positively exciting. Sunshine coast has the oft-denied natural drama of weathered cliffs, picturesque gorges, and rich hinterland interior. If we bang on about it enough, we'll create our own reality. And if you never quite knew what the Sunshine Coast has to offer until you came here, buckle in because there's loads fun and educational things to do that will show you the best side of the region."
"The most Northerly tip of Australia?s (small) continent, the Sunshine Coast boasts of blue skies, warm seas and breathtaking scenery. Read the top 10 Sunshine coast attractions, as well as where to stay, eat and what to do while you?re there!"
