Friendly Caloundra is a firm favourite for caravan trips and water adventures.
About an hour's drive north of Brisbane, the laid-back Sunshine Coast town of Caloundra is home to some of Queensland's best white-sand beaches. When you're not soaking up the sun on Kings Beach or taking a dip in its oceanfront saltwater pool, you can follow walking tracks that lead all the way around the Caloundra headland and enjoy a wide range of water activities including kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing, fishing, and jet skiing. The Caloundra region has a range of accommodation options available, including caravan sites on the Pumicestone Passage. Many sites feature hookups and access to dump stations, while other campgrounds include swimming pools, laundry, camp kitchens, and free wifi.
