Noosa Heads Main Beach
Noosa Heads Main Beach is one of Australia’s most beloved coastal destinations, offering golden sands, clear blue waters, and a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. Its rare north-facing orientation shelters the beach from strong winds, creating calm surf conditions ideal for children, casual swimmers, and beginner surfers. This makes it one of the few east-coast beaches where you can comfortably enjoy the water year-round. It’s also easily accessible from Hastings Street, a lively strip filled with cafés, shops, and luxury stays.
The beach has been a favorite since the 1800s, drawing visitors with its natural beauty and gentle waves. Beyond the beach, Noosa National Park offers coastal trails and dramatic clifftop views. One of the most popular walks leads to Noosa Heads Lookout, where lucky visitors might spot dolphins or migrating whales. Whether you’re after a swim, a surf, or a peaceful nature stroll, Noosa Heads Main Beach blends convenience with stunning scenery.

Laguna Lookout
Laguna Lookout is one of Noosa’s most scenic vantage points, perched above the treetops with sweeping views over Noosa Heads, Laguna Bay, and the sparkling Coral Sea. It’s a short drive or a pleasant uphill walk from Hastings Street, making it a convenient yet rewarding stop on any Noosa itinerary. The lookout is particularly magical at sunrise or sunset, when golden light spills across the coastline, creating perfect photo opportunities.
Tucked within Noosa National Park, Laguna Lookout is surrounded by native bushland teeming with wildlife. The area is part of a network of walking trails, so visitors often encounter birds, butterflies, and even the occasional koala. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful moment away from the beach or an easy scenic hike, Laguna Lookout offers a serene and stunning perspective on Noosa’s natural beauty.

Mooloolaba Beach
Mooloolaba Beach, located on the Sunshine Coast about 1.5 hours north of Brisbane, is known for its safe swimming waters, fine golden sand, and welcoming seaside atmosphere. The beach is patrolled year-round, making it ideal for families, beginner surfers, and sun-seekers.
What sets Mooloolaba apart is its seamless blend of laid-back charm and modern convenience. The beachfront esplanade is lined with boutique shops, gelato bars, and fresh seafood eateries, making it a popular hangout for both locals and tourists.
