Coolum is situated on the Sunshine Coast, the once sleepy seaside holiday destination of only a few has sprung to life and is now becoming highly sought after by many as a holiday destination in its own right, away from the hustle and bustle of places like Noosa and Mooloolaba but still so close to everything the Sunshine Coast offers.
Where to start? The choice of eating establishments will be a difficult one with Coolum boasting a number of top restaurants and cafes that are perfect for a quick coffee, all day dining or a quiet drink at the end of the day. Enjoy browsing through the ever growing range of boutiques and homeware shops that call Coolum home. Coolum boasts a fully patrolled beach as well as offering wide open sandy beaches with arguably some of the best surfing on the Sunshine Coast. Coolum offers the most avid walkers a 16 kilometre boardwalk that hugs the coastline offering spectacular views and extends all the way to Sunshine Beach. Stop at the rocky headlands of Point Arkright and Point Perry to take in the stunning viewing platforms and views over Coolum towards Noosa in the north and south to Mooloolaba. A great spot for a picnic! The iconic Mt Coolum offers a challenging climb with spectacular views once you reach the summit and well worth the effort.
Golf anyone? Coolum is also home to the beautiful Hyatt Regency golf course which is of course home to the Australian PGA Champoinship which begins the 9th of December this year. This stunning golf course offers stunning scenery with each hole being totally unique, with this course being rated one of Australia’s top courses. Holidaying at Element at Coolum beach puts you close to not only the Hyatt Course but also Mt Coolum, Noosa Springs, Novotel Twin Waters and Pelican Waters.
