In a couple of weeks I will be heading back to Italy. One of the things I miss about Australia when I am there is the beach. I think we have some of the best beaches in the world here. One of my favourite beaches is Noosa, not far from home.
Take a look…I am sure you will agree that is is an excellent beach.
The beach is lined with restaurants and places to stay. There is nothing over 3 levels and I think it looks great. Beaches in Australia are free and everyone has access.
The water is clean and clear.
On my early morning swim I looked down to see whiting and bream swimming by. I can’t show you because I don’t have a waterproof camera, but I could have reached out and touched them.
Around the headland is Little Cove…a little slice of heaven.
We booked our stay at the end of the summer holidays here in Queensland. Children have gone back to school and the beach is now quiet…the way I like it.
Noosa is an excellent place for holidays by the sea. The beach is beautiful, the sea is relatively safe with no huge waves and there is a lovely walk around the coast. Care has been taken to provide wooden boardwalks beside the sea to help preserve the trees and vegetation. It is not unusual to see a koala in the eucalypt trees along the path. We walked along the path this morning.
There is a great view from the path back to the main beach.
There is also a view of a fabulous house on First Point…the best position in town.
There are some lovely rain forest walks along the path.
We took a boat down the Noosa river to Tewantin. There are some enormous, expensive houses on one side of the river and national park on the other side. Dozens of houseboats are anchored…I even found one for sale for you.
The river is lovely, I recommend the boat ride.
I hate to drag myself away from Noosa, but it will still be here when I return from Italy. I have been visiting Noosa since the 1960s and I hope to continue for some time to come.
