Default things to do in Noosa

Any suggestions? I've been there quite a few times now and have done all the touristy type stuff. Can anyone suggest anything different?! Any good walking tracks?

Have you done the coastal walk through Noosa National park - Its starts near the surf club and takes you round the coast to Hells gates and even through to sunshine beach. There are some fabulous views.

It is great we took a boat out for a day, loads of boats for hire, if you are sharp like me you stay at a place that has one for hire.

Fishing kit from boot of car straight into boat and off you go.

Great day out. I am going to do it again soon,.
