On the Sunshine Coast, we're nestled in nature and green at heart. We care about our environment, from the sparkling coastline to the ancient peaks of the Glass House Mountains and rainforests. And more importantly, we care about preserving it for years to come.
It's this commitment to living sustainably with nature that makes the Sunshine Coast so special. In fact, we're the only destination in Australia where you'll find three UNESCO Biosphere Reserves sitting side-by-side.
A holiday here is all about doing things that are good for you and good for the planet - whether that's getting back to nature with an eco-tour across our sparkling waters, treading lightly though our leafy backyard and sleeping soundly in accommodation where sustainability is a way of life.
