Traveling to The Sunshine Coast of Australia

by Zane Archer

Australia's Sunshine Coast is a little nicer than the Gold Coast. It's gorgeous beaches stretch for more than 100 kilometers. Starting at Calondra, on down to Cooloola, you will find the Fraser Islands and the Glass House Mountains. Mary Valley and Noosa Hinterland are here, as well. There are plenty of things to do, catering to all ages.



Among the many activities to enjoy, are rainforest walks, golfing, and spas. There are lots of things to enjoy doing outdoors, canoeing, fishing, surfing and swimming. The Sunshine Coast has the offering of the country as well as the coast. It is an ideal choice for a little rest and relaxation.



A main attraction not to miss is the Australia Zoo in Beerwah. Steve Irwin pioneered the zoo and made great contributions. His family is still seen often around the zoo. There is lots to do for kids, here, and the variety of animals is tremendous.



The Big Pineapple in Woombye is a great place to visit, as well. It is a working plantation of over 80 hectares that grows pineapple. They have a wildlife reserve you can tour, as well. You can pan for gold, as well. Take a trip on the Valley Rattler in Mary Valley. It is a steam train that rides along a very pretty view, leaving from Gympie station. At Underwater World you can dive with sharks and swim with seals.



With the surf, hinterland and the sun, its no surprise that the Sunshine Coast also offers outstanding food, always fresh and often organic .The local cuisine makes the most of the local produce and you can literally taste your way around the most natural settings in the world.
