Noosaville Attractions : The National Park

The Noosa National Park Headland section is one of the most frequently visited national parks in Australia, and for good reason. Easily accessible from famous Hastings Street or from Sunshine Beach to the south, the park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts from nature-lovers and picnickers to bush walkers and surfers. It has an abundance of wildlife, including spirited bush turkeys, lumbering goannas and everyone's favourite, koalas.

The rocky headland of the park features crashing surf and sheltered bays that are both sandy and stony, while the scenic vistas take in ancient sand hills, deep cool vine forests, damp palm groves and heath-covered slopes. The southern sections of the park are home to significant tracts of wallum, a wet landscape filled with banksia trees and stunning wild flowers that bloom from August to October each year.
