This section is dedicated to take away all your "I wish someone had told me that before I went!" experiences. This way, you can spend less time settling in, and more time making new friends in your chosen hostel. We share our insider knowledge of tips, tricks and important things to look out for in Noosa North Shore.
Noosa North Shore is quieter than the rest of the Noosa region. If you want to get here from Noosa, you will need to take a boat over from the end of Moorindil Street in Tewantin. It is only a two-minute trip and you can take your car over on the ferry with you if you are traveling with one. Given that this is such a large and beautiful area to explore and due to its lack of public transport, traveling with a car on this side of Noosa is preferable if you are to see as much as possible of this beautiful area and to make the most of your time. When you get there, the hostels in Noosa North Shore are located along Beach Road.
Home to the Great Sandy National Park, there is an abundance of outdoor and adventure activities that you can engage in along the stunning white sand that stretches for miles along the coastline. You can try fishing, four-wheel driving, swimming, fishing, surfing, or just lazing about on the beach and soaking up some of the famous Queensland sun. If you enjoy canoeing or kayaking, Lake Cootharaba is a great place to go and do this. Throughout the National Park you will also find an abundance of native Australian animals.
There are some family restaurants and stores for food supply here, but they are not as abundant as they are on the southern side of the Noosa shore. This side of Noosa has a far more quaint and small-town feel to it than the upmarket, southern feel of Noosa.
