Journey Destination Experience
About an hour’s north of Brisbane, the capital city of Queenslane is the Sunshine Coast with it’s wow line up of stunning white sand surf beaches. Caloundra is the most southern beach community followed by Mooloolaba, Alexandra Headlands, Maroochydore, Mudjimba, Coolum, Sunshine Beach and Noosa. There are more delightful beaches tucked away, but these are the main ones.
There are many dog friendly beaches for your furry buddy, our favourite being Stumers Creek just north of Coolum.
As well as beaches there are many relaxed restaurants and bars with waterviews and inventive menus.

Or Rice Boi on the Wharf Mooloolaba for funky industrial design and a street food inspired menu.
