There's the vast Pumicestone Passage, its sheltered waters dotted with kite surfers and small craft. Stroll the charming Norfolk Pine-lined boulevard at Bulcock Beach, savouring a gelati along the way. The calm waters of Mooloolaba Spit and Golden Beach are perfect for kids to make a splash or learn to fish.Long stretches of sandy beaches, including Kawana, Maroochydore, Coolum and Sunshine Beach are ideal for surfing, boogie boarding and relaxing walks.
