Heading west out of Noosa will take you through the bustling centre of Tewantin, the first area in  Noosa to be settled. Stop into the information centre on the main street to see some photos depicting how Noosa looked in years past.

 

Continuing west you'll come to the Noosa Hinterland towns of Cooroy, Pomona, Cooran and Kin Kin.

South West of Noosa is the Noosa Coastal Hinterland with Lake Weyba at its centre. The Lake features a number of cosy boutique B&B's and cottages where you can relax in tranquility and watch the kangaroos graze at the lake's edge. Or if you're feeling active you can take a canoe out on the lake or even cycle into town.

 

Eumundi is another 'must-see' in the Noosa area. Located just 20 mins west of Noosa it is well known for the famous Eumundi Markets which attract visitors from far and wide every Wednesday and Saturday but any day is a great day to visit Eumundi.

 

North West of Noosa, about 15 minutes out of town you'll find the lakeside village of Boreen Point on the shores of Lake Cootharaba. A popular spot for sailors and kitesurfers, Borreen Point has a fantastic campground and Caravan Park and is a good base to explore the Noosa Everglades by boat, canoe or kayak.
