Hells Gate Noosa National Park

Noosa National Park Walk from Sunshine Beach

The Sunshine Coast in Queensland has a stellar line-up of sun-soaked beaches stretching 65 km north from Caloundra to the celebrated holiday destination of Noosa. Most people visit Noosa and the Noosa National Park, so it makes perfect sense to combine the two in a Noosa National Park Walk from Sunshine Beach to Noosa Heads. …

Visiting Reef HQ Townsville is fun and informative and is one of our favourite things to do in Townsville Australia. It is as close as you can get to a Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling Tour on dry land and a wonderful reef ecosystem learning experience. Reef HQ is suitable for all ages and abilities and …

Forts Walk Koala

Koalas on the Forts Walk Magnetic Island

Magnetic Island off the coast of Townsville in North Queensland has many National Park walks connecting the bays. The Island was a defence post in WWII and the walk leads to artillery installations, ammunition bunkers and of course the forts with their gob-smacking enemy-spotting views. Viewing war paraphernalia in such a peaceful location is surreal …

Our family are serial Queensland holiday-makers and no Robinson holiday is over without having first visited Eumundi Market Sunshine Coast, at least once. Hubby and I were discussing the other day what keeps us coming back year after year, for 20 years to be precise and so this post was born. We do love to do …

Kangaroos, emus and cute Koalas. Australia is a unique destination and one of the best ways to experience all it has to offer, is to go on your own Australian road trip. I know you are thinking how accommodation costs eat away at money reserves, what with Dorm beds hovering around $40/night and budget hotels …

Bao Down, I bow down now to your awesome food and mural designs. Fleetingly I wondered how a yum Bao restaurant would fit the Mount Coolum shopping centre. Don’t get me wrong I love this shopping centre – it has my favourite hippy shop, Dragonfly Dreaming just two shops away from Bao Down. But I …

Some friends and I were brain storming the other day about blogging projects. As Humpback whales are currently moving up the east Coast of Queensland for the whale watching season Gold Coast, our decision was easy – Lets Go Humpback Whale Watching Gold Coast! The Gold Coast is known for it’s theme parks, but I …

It is too long since we’ve hunched over a bowl of piping hot Pho in VIETNAM, but lately I’ve heard snippets about Nguyen Bros Vietnamese Restaurant Maroochydore. The Sunshine Coast Daily lists them as No. 1 or fourteen new restaurants to try on the Coast. One day when the weather turned to rain and a …
