Why it's worth checking out
The Noosa Coastal Walk winds through Noosa National Park from Noosa Heads, on the celebrated Sunshine Coast. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 128 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved attraction.
The appeal is breathtaking coastal scenery — a walking track hugging the headland past pristine coves, rocky points and the famous Hell's Gates, with the chance to spot koalas, dolphins and, in season, whales. Starting near Hastings Street, it's one of the loveliest coastal walks in Australia and a genuine highlight of any Noosa visit.
Trails have changing conditions and can be exposed, so wear suitable footwear, take water and check current details before you head out. Otherwise it's a free, rewarding walk to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection and take your time soaking up the views.
