With its stretch of perfect beaches, golden sun, and white sand, visitors just cannot get enough of the Sunshine Coast. 

A day on the Sunshine Coast

Spending at least a week or so in town is essential, but not everyone is gifted with the time to do so. Listen up while we discuss how to spend a day or 24 hours on the Sunny Coast so that you can make the most out of it!

Wake up at 5 in the morning

Wake up early to the sound of the beach waves, and you will indeed have a great day ahead. The Netanya Noosa Resort offers a unique beachfront view, great amenities, beautiful rooms, and much more. Upon waking up, you can choose to take a morning walk along the shores or swim in the clear water. You can also choose to have a picnic at the Noosa National Park or visit the Noosa river for a yoga or pilates session.

Take your breakfast at 7 AM

Prepare for a fun-filled day by having breakfast at the Season Restaurant! This place is usually famous for its delicious food and beachfront dining, so you better arrive early to get the best seats. You’d surely enjoy the fresh fruit plate and smashed avocado if you are health conscious. One of their bestsellers, the big breakfast, includes two eggs, crispy bacon, grilled chipolatas, truss tomato, mushrooms, Season chilli jam, and ciabatta. If you’ve got your kids with you, there’s no need to worry – as they also offer a specially-made menu for kids.

Visit the Eumundi Market at 9 AM

The Eumundi Market is only open every Wednesday and Saturday, but you definitely have to visit if you have the chance. The bargain is marvellous, and there are a lot of stalls that you can choose from. One great thing about it is that it supports emerging small businesses, which helps new companies become well-known.

Eat lunch at the Flame Hill Vineyard and Restaurant at 12 noon

Enjoy your lunch while being surrounded by the quiet that is the Flame Hill Vineyard and Restaurant. The area is so serene that you would want to live here forever. Enjoy the grass, trees, and fresh air while eating the freshest seafood or the tastiest beef and pork in the area!

Head to the South-East at around 2 PM

After a meal at the Flame Hill Vineyard, head on to the southeast part of the city, choose to either lay down on the sand and bathe under the sun or take a quick dip in the clear, blue waters.

King’s Bulcock or Golden Beach are both excellent choices for swimming and sunbathing. For a more convenient trip, it’s best to rent a car in Sunshine Coast. No time constraints, plus you do not have to share the ride with anyone other than your loved ones.

Watch the sunset at 6 PM

Enjoy the romantic sunset on to Noosa River. Where you can climb up to the top deck, also called “the sunset bar”. After watching the sun go down, you can dine downstairs for some Mooloolaba prawn salad and seafood platter.

Get your alcohol fix at 9 PM

When in Maroochydore, you definitely have to end the night by drinking a cocktail at Miss Moneypenny’s. Just remember to go straight to bed right after drinking – no driving after!

Sunshine Coast is a very “chill” place that every individual needs to visit at least once in their lives.

Hire Car Sunshine Coast

Getting to and from multiple locations is much easier with a rental car. As opposed to restricting yourself to public transport options and schedules, driving yourself around gives you complete control of your itinerary.
