Sunshine Coast Itineraries

What to see first, what can wait, and how far apart it all really is.

Plan the trip

The Sunshine Coast reads as one place on a map and behaves as three: sixty kilometres of coast from Caloundra to Noosa, the Blackall Range behind it, and the Noosa hinterland villages to the north. Getting between them is the part people underestimate. These itineraries are built around the driving as much as the stops.

3 Days on theSunshine Coast

The perfect 3-day Sunshine Coast itinerary for 2024. Day-by-day guide covering Noosa National Park, Eumundi Markets, the Blackall Range hinterland, Glass House Mountains, and Mooloolaba — wi

How long do you need?

One day

Pick a lane — coast or hinterland, not both. A day trying to do Noosa and Montville is a day spent in the car.

Three days

Enough for the coast, one hinterland day and one wildcard — Australia Zoo, the Everglades or Eumundi on a market morning.

Five or six days

Adds the Noosa hinterland villages, a waterfall day and time to sit still, which is the point of the place.

Cooee Tours acknowledges the Kabi Kabi (Gubbi Gubbi) people as the Traditional Custodians of the Sunshine Coast and Noosa hinterland, and pays respect to their Elders past and present.
