Rise and shine

Noosa’s climate makes it easy to get up early. Watch the sun rise over the headland as it brings light and life to the nature that surrounds. Why not take a gentle walk along Noosa Main Beach from First Point to the river mouth with the sound of the ocean humming?

Get into the zen

Join the early morning chorus and greet the sun with yoga on the beach or along the river. Yoga and Pilates studios have classes for everything from hot and steamy to fast and fit – there’s even yoga on a stand-up paddleboard. And with hinterland spaces offering mindful retreats such as the organic Shambala Farm’s Shala yoga, we’ve mastered the art of relaxation.

Learn to surf or SUP

Make the most of Noosa’s World Surfing Reserve status and let the cleansing water and gentle waves wash over you as you try a new aquatic challenge. Noosa is the perfect place to learn to surf, with welcoming surf schools on the sands of Laguna Bay and boards to hire once you’ve mastered it. Learn to stand-up paddle along the calm waters of the Noosa River.

Take a cooking class

Healthy food is essential for wellbeing and you can learn the chefs’ secrets as Noosa’s cooking schools serve up tasty techniques, from the Spirit House’s curries and Eastern delicacies to the flavours of Noosa with Life’s a Feast who take you from the market to the plate.

Practise your swing

Head to the greens for a game of golf at one of the region’s several golf courses. Forgo the buggy and walk the 18 holes and enjoy Noosa’s natural surrounds.

For some dreamy pampering, Noosa’s award-winning day spas, wellness centres and restorative retreats offer healing and sublime treatments to energise, soothe and relax. Noosa’s world of wellness takes you from the tranquillity of Balinese-inspired gardens and Hawaiian influenced treatments to European aquatherapy traditions, Roman-style baths and therapies from the world’s ancient cultures. There are luscious treatments for spa parties, couples or just your own solitude. Take a break between ocean dips with a massage on the beach or enjoy the serenity of a mobile treatment in your room.
