There is something special about living on the Sunshine Coast. We see it every day in the smiles of visitors, the beaches over summer and the way people talk about our region when they head home.
But sometimes, when you live here, it is easy to forget just how good we have it. That is exactly why we launched Sunny Staycation.
Made by locals, for locals, Sunny Staycation is our tourism industry’s way of saying a genuine thank you to the community that supports us year-round.
After a big summer welcoming visitors, February and March give us a chance to turn the tables and invite locals to enjoy the Coast at mate’s rates.
This is not just about great deals. It is about connection. It is about our small, family-owned businesses, our tour operators, our brewers and our accommodation providers opening their doors and saying, come and enjoy what you help make possible.
Tourism supports 29,700 jobs across our region, or around one in every seven local jobs.
Behind every experience is a local family, a local team member, a local story.
With more than 40 deals across the region and savings of 25 to 50 per cent on some of our most loved experiences, Sunny Staycation is your prompt to finally try the place you always drive past or book the restaurant you keep meaning to visit.
From the Noosa and Mooloolaba ferries to Sunny Jeeps, the Aquaduck and the Mary Valley Rattler, there is plenty to explore. You will also find discounts on bowling and mini golf, dining specials across the Coast and accommodation offers including stay three, pay two deals. I even took up the two-for-one entry at Hologram Zoo Sunshine Coast with my family.
Think of it as a holiday at home offering great experiences and a fresh appreciation for where we live.
So, gather your mates, organise that group chat and make a plan. Sunny Staycation is our way of saying thanks and giving you a tasty, adventurous and memorable reason to holiday in your own backyard.
After all, it’s time to enjoy the perks of living in a world-class destination. Find all the deals at visitsunshinecoast.com/locals
