Noosa Main Beach, Noosa

4.8
#1 of 8 in Beaches in Sunshine Coast
Beach Nature / Park Must See
Noosa Heads' main attractions are its beaches. Noosa Main Beach and its small bays are popular surfing locations well known on the world surfing circuits. Local artists often create large sand sculptures, such as medieval castles and dragons, on the beach's wide strip of white sand. This beach has lifeguards on duty daily, and flags bouncing on top of the water clearly mark a safe swimming zone. Several snack vendors operate on the sand, none more popular than the iconic "Hey Bill." Our Noosa trip itinerary planner makes visiting Noosa Main Beach and other Noosa attractions simple, and helps you make a travel plan personal to you.

    August is a great time of the year to visit Noosa. It's not over crowded and the weather is fantastic averaging 26 degrees everyday.  more »

    Totally stunning beach front. Lots of seating to just sit under the trees or in the sun. The walking path is lovely to walk and relax.  more »

    A beautiful beach with lots of surfers. Close to all amenities. Didn't see anyone hiring deckchairs though. Life guards on duty most of the day. Gets very busy.  more »
