As everything’s located within a few hour’s drive of each other, you can be on a Gold Coast beach in the morning, hiking through the forest in the afternoon and catching up for dinner, drinks and a world-class theatre production in Brisbane to top off your Sunday.
Or, if you prefer, have a round of golf on a championship course, museum-hop, shop till you drop and visit a tourist attraction or two, during a normal weekend on the Sunshine Coast. Dive, fish, horse-ride, hang glide, skydive, jet ski, go-cart or attend a craft convention. Whatever it is you like to do, you’ll find it in the nearby vicinity.
