For the ultimate in beachfront shopping, dining and partying, Mooloolaba is the place to be. Classy fashion boutiques share the beachfront esplanade with healthy juice bars, outdoor restaurants, cool cafes and stylish clubs and bars. In the heart of the action is Mooloolaba Surf Club where you can have a cocktail at sunset and hit the dance floor after dark.

One of the area’s best-kept local secrets is Mooloolaba Spit, where you can have a relaxing swim in sheltered waters and watch the sun go down as the fishing trawlers come in with the fresh catch of the day. Head to Alexandra Headland, where the kids can hit the halfpipes and curves of the coolest skatepark on the coast before diving into the ocean for a swim. Or enjoy a game of family frisbee on the white sands of Maroochydore Beach.

If you prefer a quieter scene, try Marcoola, where on certain days you’ll be lucky to see another person on the beach - or the classy quietude of Twin Waters, with even more uncrowded coastline.
