PEREGIAN & SUNSHINE BEACH
POP 3519 & 2298
Fifteen kilometres of uncrowded, unobstructed beach stretch north from Coolum to Sun-
shine Beach and the rocky northeast headland of Noosa National Park.
Peregian
is the place to indulge in long solitary beach walks, to surf the excellent breaks
and take in fresh air and plenty of sunshine; it's not uncommon to see whales breaking off-
shore.
A little further north, the laidback latte ethos of
Sunshine Beach
attracts Noosa locals escap-
ing the summer hordes. Beach walks morph into bush trails over the headland; a stroll
two hours to Noosa's Laguna Bay. Road access to the park is from McAnally Dr or
Parkedge Rd.

Flashpackers challenges the notion of hostels as flea-bitten
dives, with pristine dorm rooms and an airy tropical design. Thoughtful touches include
full-length mirrors, ample wall sockets, free surfboard use and complimentary Friday night
sausage sizzle.

Right by Noosa National Park and set in aptly bushy gardens, the Chez is fantast-
ic value for money. The self-contained units are basic but cute, and there's a heated pool
and spa with an undercover BBQ area.
