About the Sunshine Coast and Hinterlands Region

The Sunshine Coast is a coastal region located in south-east Queensland, north of the Queensland capital of Brisbane.

The Sunshine Coast consists of three Local Government Areas, which are Noosa Shire in the north, Maroochy Shire in the middle, and Caloundra City in the south. Localities and suburbs within the Sunshine Coast region include Maroochy Shire suburbs such as Mooloolaba, Alexandra Headland, Maroochydore, Buderim and Nambour.

The Sunshine Coast is bordered by the Pacific Ocean in the east, and extends beyond the Blackall Range to the west. Occasionally, the towns of Gympie, which is 30 minutes' drive north of Noosa Heads, and Caboolture, 30 mins drive south of Caloundra, have been included in a broader definition of the Sunshine Coast region.

The region is characterized by beautiful beaches, expansive coastal views and rich fertile soils in the hinterland. Many world-renowned beaches are located at Noosa Heads, Alexandra Headlands, Mooloolaba, Coolum and Kings Beach in Caloundra. There are popular surfing areas along the beaches and headlands.

The Sunshine Coast is a centre for tourism, containing attractions such as Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo, UnderWater World marine park, Aussie World with the Ettamogah Pub, The Buderim Ginger Factory, Big Pineapple and the Majestic Theatre.

The Sunshine Coast region is home to more individual national parks than any other region in Queensland. The natural biodiversity of the area has been protected by five separate parks in both coastal and inland regions, including Mapleton Falls National Park, Kondalilla National Park, Noosa National Park, and the Great Sandy National Park, which includes sections on Fraser Island and in Cooloola near Rainbow Beach. Also worth visiting is the Glasshouse Mountains National Park, named for its dramatic volcanic plugs - cores of extinct volcanoes that formed 25 million to 27 million years ago - punctuating the surrounding plain.
