Upcoming Events in Sunshine Coast

Sink your toes into the golden sand of Coolum Beach and feel your shoulders drop inch by inch as you breathe in the fresh sea air - you’ve landed in paradise here and endless Sunshine Moments await. While its neighbours might be more hustle and bustle, at Coolum Beach unwinding and unplugging isn’t just encouraged, it's a way of life. Fringed by grassy beachfronts, parks, and pristine waters, your days here will be filled with soaking up the great outdoors. Start with a refreshing splash at main beach. The home break of pro surfer Julian Wilson, the sprawling beach’s consistent waves and glassy waters make it a favourite for surfers and body boarders. And no, you don’t need to be a pro to take on the foam here. Book yourself in for a lesson with Coolum Surfing School's local and professional surf instructors whose passion is passing on the "stoke" of surfing. For individuals or groups, their surfers teach beginners to stand for the first time, groms to hone their skills and experienced surfers to master their sport. Nothing beats the euphoric feeling of gliding through the ocean and landing your first wave.
