Why it's worth checking out
Maroochydore Beach sits at Maroochydore, one of the Sunshine Coast's main hubs. With 201 reviews behind its 4.6 rating, it's a much-loved beach.
The appeal is a beautiful, patrolled stretch of golden sand — lovely surf and calm waters where the Maroochy River meets the sea, a genuine highlight for a swim, a surf, a stroll or simply relaxing, with the town's cafes and shops close by. It's a lovely, family-friendly beach.
Beaches have changing conditions, tides and seasonal facilities, so check current details and swim between the flags. Otherwise it's a free, family-friendly spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and your swimmers.
