After our wonderful journey to the Australia Zoo, we headed north to Noosa Heads, Queensland. Noosa Heads is located 160 kilometres north of Brisbane on the southeast coast of Queensland (aka: the Sunshine Coast). It forms the north-eastern tip of Noosa National Park. It is known for its spectacular beaches. As a beach loving family, I can tell you that this was one of the prettiest beaches we have witnessed. It is a small, cozy town with specialty shops, boutiques and alfresco dining. There were no chain restaurants and no fast food. Everything is within walking distance. We stayed at the Netanya Noosa Resort located on the popular Hastings Street.
Day Two: After enjoying breakfast, we set out on a walk along the boardwalk. The boardwalk connects the Main Beach to Noosa National Park. It is a walk along the coast line and it winds its way through Noosa National Park. The setting is breathtaking. We then headed back to the beach for a little swimming. The weather was a bit cloudy with intermittent rain showers, but we didn’t care. We had dinner at a nice steak house and then went back to the resort to enjoy some wine while listening to the ocean. Jake and Gabby enjoyed some TimTams.
Day Three at Noosa was sunny and warm. So after a quick breakfast buffet (we love our breakfast buffets), we headed to the beach and pool. We rented a boogie board and caught a few waves. We sat by the pool, chatted with some really nice Aussies and just soaked up the sun until there was no sun to be had. We were exhausted so we relaxed with a Pizza and a movie in the room.
Day Four found us heading to back to Brisbane where Gary’s pineapple factory is located. Since it was a Monday, he went into the factory for a few hours. The kids and I explored downtown Brisbane and then headed to the hotel pool. We spent the evening packing up for an early afternoon flight back to Melbourne.
We will defintely head back to Queensland for a holiday!
