The Best Beaches on the Sunshine Coast!

It is no secret that our family love the beach. Here on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, we are so blessed to have lots of stunning swimming spots to chose from. We love so many, and for different reasons.

Below I have put together a list of our favourite Sunshine Coast beaches and why we choose to spend our summers on them.
