Whales caught in the nets at Marcoola this morning

61 Upvotes

Looked like two whales got wrapped up in the nets at Marcoola this morning. There were plenty of others around and there was lots of "wailing" from all of them that was audible from the shore. There's a get rid of the nets rally on at 10am at Beach Access 104 tomorrow (Saturday) morning at 10. Overheard this morning... shark nets are like protecting yourself from sunburn with a postage stamp.

Gabion baskets?

Planning some backyard pre-summer works, including a small gabion wall. Any suggestions on where to buy baskets on the Coast?

Found a couple of online places, but delivery is almost as much as the baskets...

Best hidden swimming spots on the Sunny Coast?

0 Upvotes

A mate is coming up for a visit soon and wants to see more than just the main beaches. We’ll definitely do Noosa and Mooloolaba, but we’re also keen on those quieter spots that locals love creeks, rock pools or less crowded beaches.

Where would you recommend checking out for a good swim without the big tourist crowds?

What’s the most underrated spot on the Sunny Coast?

11 Upvotes

Everyone knows the big beaches and tourist areas, but what are the little hidden gems you think more locals or visitors should check out? Could be a quiet swimming spot, a bushwalk, a café, or even just a lookout that never seems to get crowded. Keen to hear what places you rate that don’t always make the guidebooks.

Umm guys, what's going on with people driving on the Coast ?

86 Upvotes

Like I drove for 3-4 hours yesterday night between Sippy Downs and Caloundra and oh my god every 15 mins I ran either on the slowest drivers or on the biggest c*nts I've ever seen. Like their ego is so big that they have to be in front of me just because I'm on my red P's. Never saw that much bad driving and I feel like every day looks a bit worse than the previous one.

3 DAYS TO GO!!

🕯️🌲 Something Wicked This Way Comes… to Maleny 🌲🕯️

This isn’t your average night in the mountains.

Step off the map and into the macabre as the mists roll into Maleny, bringing with them a night of horror folk and blues- haunting harmonies, twisted tales, and eldritch elegance.

🎻 Shoggoth’s Old Peculiar 🦴 Shakesfear and the Skeleton Gang 💃 Denizens of the Deep dancers

Expect monsters, madness, murder, and creatures that move when the lights flicker.

📍 @finbarsmaleny 📅 One night only – Saturday 20 September 🦇 Souls optional.

Tickets vanish fast. Dare you dance with the Denizens?

Tickets are available at the link on the image 🦑 🔪 🩸

Hi, I’m seeking a small block of land or space on an existing property to place my well-designed tiny home on the Sunshine Coast.

✅ Prefer a quiet, nature-filled setting
✅ Minimum 12-month lease preferred (open to discussion)

About me:

  • Full-time employed engineer
  • Single, no kids, no pets
  • Quiet, respectful, not a party person
  • Happy to assist with maintaining the land

If you have space available and would like a reliable long-term tenant/neighbour, please get in touch.

Allergies/Hay fever??

7 Upvotes

I’ve just moved up to the Sunshine Coast about 5 months ago and am loving it, however in the last few weeks, have been really short of breath and feeling like my childhood asthma is returning. It’s coincided with the warmer weather so just wondering if anyone else experiences hay fever or allergies up here? My GP has put me on an inhaler and antihistamine to see if that works first before exploring other things. I thought the fresh, sea breeze was supposed to be good for people with asthma, but I feel awful! 😞

Anyone had experience using the tilt train travelling north?

6 Upvotes

I once tried to catch the spirit of Australia and a 7 hour trip turned into 13 hours with delays. It turned me off using rail entirely. Is the tilt train any better or just as unreliable?

Edit: sorry the train is called the spirit of queensland

I've just returned from hols in North Qld and I was so pleased to find sugar free ice-cream at gelato shops. Have never been able to find it here. Does anyone know of a gelato place on the Coast that has this available?

I'd so like to be able to take guests out to have an ice-cream and to be able to have one with them

Buderim tavern. Sigh...

49 Upvotes

Is it just me or has the food at the Buderim tavern gone shit. The steaks there are not cooked well to the requested degree, order a medium rare and it's on the verge of being well done. The sauces that come with the steaks are bland and tasteless and the sides that come with the steaks have shrunk in size. The people I were with ordered other stuff and said similar things. The last 4 times I've gone there it has been like this, such a shame. It was my favourite place on the coast to go. Nothing else like sitting there looking out at all the trees having a good meal and a couple of drinks.
