Noosa National Park is a nature lover’s paradise, though finding a carpark can be a bit of a challenge. Once you’re in, you’ll be greeted by stunning ocean views and lush landscapes at every turn. The park has breathtaking beaches like the serene Little Cove Beach, which is perfect for a relaxing swim or sunbathing. Be sure to check out the picturesque Fairy Pools, where natural rock pools offer a refreshing dip and a sprinkle of magic.

To truly take in all the beauty, embark on the Noosa Coastal Walk, which stretches about 10 kilometers one way. This trail takes you through diverse coastal scenery, with chances to spot whales, koalas, and vibrant birdlife. Although I’ve never completed the full trail, even walking short sections is absolutely incredible. The path also passes by iconic surf breaks like Granite Bay and Tea Tree (my personal favorite), making it a hit for both nature enthusiasts and surf lovers. So lace up your hiking boots, take a dip, and soak up the stunning views of Noosa National Park.
