A hinterland of waterfalls and rainforest a short drive back from beaches that stay quieter than the Gold Coast further south, a giant pineapple that has somehow become a genuine tourist landmark, and surf towns strung along the coast with a noticeably slower pace.
The best time to visit The Sunshine Coast is Sep–Apr, when typical daytime highs reach about 25°C (77°F).
