Noosa Heads is located at the northern tip of Queensland’s sub-tropical Sunshine Coast and is laid back and relaxed. The population is only about 45,000. Noosa is a place where you can spend your holiday and enjoy the more natural attractions such as beaches, bush walks, bird watching and being as lazy or as active as you like.
When you are in Noosa, take a drive up to the Laguna Lookout on Noosa Hill (see pic above & notice Lake Cooroibah in the center at the back) and look down on to one of the most beautiful (we think!) views in Australia - and you will be reminded that you are in a very special town. Otto and Sigrid (who are living in Noosa since 1985) know Noosa well, and can assist you plan your drives and outings - there is always somewhere new to visit.
Lonely Planet's latest "Discover Australia" travel guide describes Noosa as the "hippiest beachside destination in Australia" and the "brightest light on the Sunshine Coast..."
The most famous part of Noosa is probably Hastings Street and is Queensland's best known street with its tempting places to eat, shop and spend money! Hastings Street runs along a narrow spit of land that has the Noosa River on one side and Laguna Bay on the other. Laguna Bay is renowned for being one of the few northerly facing beaches in Australia.
Noosa National Park is the most visited National Park in Queensland and you can swim, surf and walk there all year round. The walking tracks are well maintained and the walk is well worth the effort.
Noosa is great if you love water sports - yachting, boating, fishing, surfing, swimming, jet-skiing, water-skiing and rowing. Bring your own boat or hire one along the riverside. If you bring your boat, there is room for it at Noosa Lakes Chalet - ask Otto and Sigrid when you book.
Visit the Eumundi markets - held every Sunday and Wednesday - take a drive to the Ettamoogah Pub or explore the Blackall Range - all within easy driving of Noosa Lakes Chalet.
If you really want to get away, we can arrange a trip for you to World Heritage listed Fraser Island - the world’s largest sand island.
No matter what you do or where you go in Noosa, your hosts Otto and Sigrid will help to make your stay in Noosa memorable and special.
