From the moment the nearby golf course opened, Coolum Beech has become known as a getaway for the wealthy and famous traveling in the area. Additionally, the development of high rise apartments and resorts has drawn in many less affluent folks looking for a new home or just a Sunshine Coast holiday location.

Halfway between Maroochydore and Noosa, the beach at Coolum offers great surfing while the nearby bays and rocky lagoons are great for fishing. Although it will take a couple of hours and some exercise, the hike to the top of Mt. Coolum is worth the effort. The views from the top are breathtaking.

If you want to spend some time away from the rocky coast, fishing in the sea, then you can contract a charter operator to take you on a deep-sea fishing excursion. Operators can be easily found at Noosa just 15 minutes south of Coolum Beach.
