Sightseeing
Even if you're not the fittest person, you can climb Mount Coolum in around 30 minutes or so. If you're really fit you could run up and down in around 20 minutes (there are people that do this daily!) What an amazing view of the Sunshine Coast once you're at the top! When the whales are migrating, it's a great spot to watch them frolicking.

This natural beauty is situated about a 30 minute drive from the house. It's an easy walk around the top but if you want to go for a longer walk, you can take the track down to the bottom and hike back up. Once at the top you can have a swim in the natural pool to cool off.

Don't be alarmed by the name, the walk out to this lookout is spectacular. The track hugs the beautiful coastline all the way to a peninsula that has the most amazing views. You can sometime see turtle's and whales (during whale migration). The track is mostly level but make sure you take some water! There are so many great places along the way to stop and take some beautiful photos.
