On a clear day, you can track the coastline all the way from Noosa Heads across Lake Cooroibah to the hinterland ranges behind Cooroy. This circular viewing platform at the top of Viewland Drive is the kind of place locals bring visitors when they want to show off the region without walking far. The 1.3km trail up from Hastings Street is worth knowing about, but most people drive. Parking is tight and capped at two hours, so arriving early matters, especially at sunset when the crowd thickens and people drag chairs onto the slope. Wheelchair accessible. No facilities, no entry fee. The trees surrounding the platform are old and substantial, which makes the clearing feel earned.

Good little lookout over Noosa. Either a 1.3km walk up from Hastings Street (main street of Noosa) or drive up and park right next to lookout. Not a big carpark, which has a 2hr parking limit. Nice view even on a cloudy day. Best experienced at sunrise or sunset.

Stopped by Laguna Lookout while we were in Noosa and it was definitely worth the short drive up. The view is amazing and gives you a great look over Noosa, the river, the coastline and out towards the ocean. It's the kind of place where you can take your time, enjoy the scenery and get some great photos. There are a few viewing areas and it's easy to access. We went during the day and the views were clear, but I can imagine it would be just as nice around sunrise or sunset. It's a great spot if you're visiting Noosa and want to see the area from a different perspective

It was an easily reach place to enjoy the sunset view. For drivers, there was limited supply of parking lots, so it was recommended to arrive earlier. The lookout was just a short distance from the parking area. Some people brought their own chairs but others just stood along the fence or sat on the slope. The view was excellent.

Little Cove beach
Noosa Heads QLD
Fifteen minutes along the Noosa boardwalk from Main Beach, Little Cove rewards the walk with calm, clear water and softer sand than Tea Tree Beach. Small, occasionally windy, and unpatrolled. The trade-off for skipping the crowds is a bit of legwork.
Aqua Park Coolum
Coolum Beach
A floating inflatable obstacle course on the Sunshine Coast that's harder than it looks and cheaper than you'd expect. Timed sessions at $30 per person, deep water, plenty of life guards, and shaded BBQ spots for whoever's watching from shore.
