Experience Rainbow Beach Like a Local
G'day, adventure seekers! If you're itching for a taste of paradise, look no further than Rainbow Beach. This little slice of heaven on Queensland's Sunshine Coast is a hidden gem that's just waiting to be explored. And who better to show you around than the friendly faces at Foxiepass? We've been organizing unforgettable excursions in Rainbow Beach for yonks, and we know all the best spots to make your holiday truly special.
Carlo Sandblow: Nature's Own Amphitheatre
First up on our must-see list is the jaw-dropping Carlo Sandblow. This massive sand dune is like something out of a sci-fi flick, I tell ya! It's a whopping 15 hectares of golden sand perched high above the ocean. Our guides will lead you up to this natural wonder, where you can soak in 360-degree views of the coastline and hinterland. Fancy a bit of sandboarding? We've got you covered – it's a hoot sliding down the dunes!
Double Island Point: A Lighthouse Lover's Dream
Next stop on our Foxiepass tour is the iconic Double Island Point. This stunning headland is home to a historic lighthouse that's been keeping ships safe since 1884. Our local guides know all the best yarns about the area's maritime history. On a clear day, you might even spot some humpback whales breaching in the distance. Don't forget your camera – the views from up here are absolutely ripper!
Coloured Sands: Nature's Own Paint Palette
Now, you can't come to Rainbow Beach without checking out its namesake – the famous Coloured Sands. These towering cliffs are a kaleidoscope of over 70 different hues, created by centuries of mineral-rich sand compacting together. Our Foxiepass guides will share the fascinating Aboriginal Dreamtime stories associated with this natural wonder. It's a truly magical sight, especially at sunset when the colours really come alive.
Inskip Point: Where the Bush Meets the Beach
For those who love a bit of bush and beach action, Inskip Point is an absolute corker. This narrow, sandy peninsula is where Fraser Island nearly touches the mainland. Our tours will take you 4WD-ing along the beach, where you can try your hand at fishing or just laze about in the crystal-clear waters. Keep your eyes peeled for the local wildlife – you might spot a goanna or two!
Seary's Creek: A Natural Spa Experience
Last but not least, we'll take you to one of Rainbow Beach's best-kept secrets – Seary's Creek. This natural freshwater creek is like nature's own day spa. The tea-tree infused waters are said to have healing properties, and the gentle current gives you a nice little massage as you float along. It's the perfect spot to unwind after a day of adventure.
