My partner and I are travelling to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland in a few weeks, and we traveled to the Gold Coast back in April this year.
Does anyone have any ideas of what we could do while we are there? We aren't looking for anything too full on, just a relaxing weekend as we will be there for 4 nights.

The Sunshine Coast has a lot to offer especially if you want peace and quiet the hinterland is good and so are the beach resorts my favourite is Bullcock Beach

You should think about Australia Zoo (Steve Irwin), little towns like Maleny and Flaxton in the hinterland, go to Noosa and maybe go as far as Boreen Point on Lake Cootharaba for lunch at the pub.

Have not been to Australia Zoo yet but just love the Sunshine Coast and the Mountains

We go up to the Sunshine Coast hinterland around Maleny and Mt Glorius quite often and I must agree with you flossy that this area is very unique

we are going up next month, have booked in for underwater world (no idea if it is any good). Thinking of relocating up there from Sydney, has anyone else done this? how did you do it, just move/relocate, or find work, house etc first?

You might be lucky to see some whales... I believe they are running whale watch tours from the Sunshin Coast.

Take a side trip up to Malaney - they have great Pub up there. The mountains are a great place to recharge your batteries. Loyts of fresh air and it is also FREE (the air).

If you are going by car, near the Donnybrook exit north of Caboolture look for the tin cow on the R H side of the highway. At a glance you might think it is real. Haven't been up there for quite a whoile so I hope it is still there. Ity is in a paddock and roughly life size but has a weird colour.

Hi,
I think the Sunshine coast leaves the Gold Coast for dead, but the hinterland is special up there, the pace of life is much calmer and people are more friendly.

Google sunshine coast travel and you will have it all.
