Australia's Sunshine Coast is a little nicer than the Gold Coast. It's gorgeous beaches stretch for more than 100 kilometers. Starting at Calondra, on down to Cooloola, you will find the Fraser Islands and the Glass House Mountains. Mary Valley and Noosa Hinterland are here, as well. There are plenty of things to do, catering to all ages.
You can go on tranquil strolls in the rainforest, and of course there are golf courses and spas. There are lots of outdoor activities as well, fishing, canoeing, and river play as well as surfing and swimming. This is an ideal place to relax, it has a perfect mix of country and coast.
Of course, you must visit the Australia Zoo in Beerwah. The late Steve Irwin , aka the Crocodile Hunter, made this zoo his home. It is very well laid out and has a nice variety of animals. There are many activities to do inside the zoo, and it is a great place to take the kids. The Irwin family members are still there, and readily seen, all of the staff is happy to help.
Another interesting place to visit is the Big Pineapple in Woombye. It is a working pineapple plantation of eighty hectares. You can tour it by train, and visit the wildlife reserve. Their is also gold mining available. Take a ride on Mary Valley's Valley Rattler, which is an old steam train that leaves from Gympie railwaystation and takes you along a very picturesque ride. You can also dive with sharks or swim with seals at Underwater World at Mooloolaba.
Because of the great surf and sun, as well as hinterland, it is obvious that the Sunshine Coast has great food. It is always fresh and a lot of times organic. It is a good place to taste all that Australia has to offer.
