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.

A couple of popular attractions include
Australia Zoo, which is home of the famous Terri and Bindi
Irwin as well as plenty of animals, and Underwater World,

Lakes.

while the Caboolture Historical Village hosts a number of historic
buildings set within a beautiful bushland setting.

Continuing north along the Bruce Highway,
you will drive through the spectacular Glass
House Mountains. The Glass House Mountains features
spectacular landscape scenery, as well as offering a number
of fantastic walking trails.

Once you are past the Glass House Mountains,
you can turn off of the highway and drive along the pretty coastal
road, starting at Caloundra. Caloundra is a pleasant holiday destination,
offering a couple of interesting museums, as well as some great
beaches. There are some really good fishing spots around here,
and if you enjoy windsurfing a good place to go is Bulcock Beach
and Pumicestone Passage for various water activities.
North of Noosa are 50km of glorious beaches,
called the Cooloola Coast. The beaches are backed by the Cooloola
National Park (also called the Great Sandy National Park),
and there is a small track running all the way through the park
from Tewantin to Rainbow Beach. Along the route you will pass
Lake Cooroibah and Boreen Point along the way, both offering a
small selection of accommodation in perfect, relaxing settings.

You should also travel inland from the
coast, visiting the beautiful Sunshine
Coast Hinterland. There are some fabulous National
Parks which you can visit, and some spectacular waterfalls
