Mother Nature didn’t skimp on spectacle when she shaped the Cooloola Coast.
Rainbow Beach – a stunning part of the Gympie region – is the perfect base for exploring the coastline, famous for its fiery cliffs of coloured sands.
Team up with Epic Ocean Adventures – and enjoy a day out that includes a 4WD journey along the Great Beach Road, south from Rainbow Beach to Double Island Point. Stop to view the coloured sands and then head just beyond the point for a kayaking adventure.
In humpback season, coastal waters are a highway for migrating whales – and there’s every chance you can have an epic leviathan encounter.
Dolphins, turtles and fish are among the other marine life often spotted in the pristine waters.
The area is a jewel of the Gympie region – which celebrates its own whale-sized anniversary in 2017: 150 years!
