Because Coolum is such a popular holiday destination for Australian families, there is plenty of great family-style holiday accommodation on offer. Many families come to Coolum every year for their annual holidays because the kids have such a great time in Coolum. The beach is one of the best surfing beaches on the Sunshine Coast and is patrolled by local surf club members. The village shopping center is always popular with its street-side restaurants and cafes and there is always a happy holiday atmosphere.
Family accommodation here is supplied mostly by holiday houses and apartments. The esplanade and the next street behind are packed with fantastic apartment-style resorts that are all within walking distance from the beach and the shops and cafes. Most of the beachfront accommodation has excellent views to the east over the ocean so you will always know what the surf is like.
Nearby attractions and activities that are great for family groups include a trip to Australia Zoo or Underwater World or you can drive to Noosa and go boating or go on a fishing charter. The kids will be delighted with any of these options. There are also great places to go for a picnic and a bushwalk. The Noosa National Park is fantastic with its quiet beaches, walking trails, and wildlife. Mt Coolum is a challenging climb but the view from the top is great and a game of golf at the Hyatt Coolum or Novotel Twin Waters resorts will be a highlight of your holiday.
