Healthy Cities Confernce 2011 | GENERAL INFORMATION

One of Australia’s iconic seaside destinations, Noosa is a stylish beach resort with an international vibe. And its location makes it an excellent  gateway to World Heritage-listed Fraser Island. Hastings Street is a stylish cosmopolitan hub of beachfront resorts, cafes, delis, designer shops and al-fresco restaurants. But Noosaville’s riverfront restaurants are fast catching up, with talented chefs serving up a cornucopia of delicious international flavours. The gourmet scene is world class; ingredients are fresh from the farms and ocean.

Noosa's Main Beach is one of the few north-facing beaches in Australia. Calm conditions make it a great spot for families and those learning to surf. But really keen surfers will love the eastern beaches of Peregian Beach and Sunshine Beach.

The area's rare natural beauty and sustainable approach earned recognition by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) as an official Biosphere Reserve. And nature is only a short stroll away from the beach at Noosa National Park which is abundant with Australian native wildlife such as koalas, goannas and bush turkeys. The pristine Noosa River meanders through a series of lakes to the scenic Noosa Everglades and can be experienced by kayak or on a river cruise.

So pack your bags for a holiday at one of Australia’s iconic coastal destinations.
