Great value rental cars from the Sunshine Coast’s most trusted car hire providers
Set around 100 km to the north of Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast faces onto the Coral Sea coastline, much of which is lined by unbroken beaches — making this region a favourite among beach lovers and surfers.
The Sunshine Coast offers more than beautiful beaches though. Its interior is home to more national parks than anywhere else in Queensland, with the Glass House Mountains National Park a highlight. Back on the beach, the coastal Great Sandy National Park includes the stunning — and World Heritage-listed — K’gari (previously known as Fraser Island).
