Noosa - Autumn in Queensland

View towards Noosaville on the Noosa River
In spite of being autumn the forecast for Adelaide is in the high 20s (celsius) every day this week. Unfortunately the weather gods for the Sunshine Coast have not been so favorable. The Sunshine Coast is not promising to live up to its name with rain forecast everyday. Fortunately the meteorologists have been wrong and we have had several beautiful sunny days.

I had never visited Noosa so it was high on my list of things to do during our week on the Sunshine Coast. We were fortunate to be able to enjoy a beautiful sunny day at Noosa. It is situated on the mouth of the Noosa River as it enters the Pacific Ocean. It has very much thrown off its old-fashioned beachside town shackles and now exhibits the work of property developers. Medium density luxurious apartment complexes sit alongside ‘McMansions’. The Sheraton and Sebel Hotels back on to the main street which is predominantly dotted with clothing shops, cafés and restaurants and is only one street away from the pristine Noosa Beach. The waves were very small but they still provided amusement for the bathers who were making the most of a warm autumn day on the Sunshine Coast. It was after 5pm but people were still swimming and sunbathing. Masseurs were still plying their trade with massage tables set up on the beach. Not a bad autumn day at all!!
