Queensland boasts of some of the best culinary experiences you\u2019ll ever find in Australia. But if you want to ditch the fine dine and experience Queensland\u2019s culinary scene link a local, we recommend heading to one of the many food markets. The best part if you ask us? They won\u2019t dig a hole in your pockets.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e2e0929 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e2e0929\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Eat Street Northshore<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-220ed9d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"220ed9d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Eat Street Northshore is Brisbane\u2019s hottest food destination. The concept of this market is pretty unique, there are 70+ shipping containers fitted out into food stalls. You\u2019ll find everything from pork dumplings to Japanese pizzas, classic burgers to Korean sliders, Aussie fish and chips, vegetarian salads and curries and vegan brownies to cheesecake sundaes. Eat Street Northshore radiates an electric vibe with ever buzzing feels and live music to boot. It is located just 10 minutes away from the city and is open on Friday &amp; Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31ff4a6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"31ff4a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Miami Marketta<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e9cb31 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9e9cb31\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Indulge in a night of nibbling at the hip and yumm Miami Marketta in Gold Coast. Stroll through the laneways and order one of each of the different cuisines from over 70 stalls. Bite down on everything from Italian to Greek while you listen to the tunes wafting over from the main stage, where independent artists serve up local blues, jazz and roots. Hungry yet?

The classic combo for a rocking vacation. Head to Sunshine Coast, an hour north of Brisbane that is full of pristine beaches and stunning hinterland experiences. Take a dip in the ocean or make sandcastles on the white shores of the most loved Rainbow Beach. It is a short 15mins drive from Noosa. This sandy shoreline stretches from Noosa\u2019s North Shore all the way up to the Fraser Island. While in Noosa you can also explore the diverse biodiversity at the Noosa National Park, take scenic sunset cruises on the crystal clear water of the Noosa River and immerse in activities such as kayaking and snorkelling.<\/p><p>Another one popular amongst the locals is Mooloolaba Beach. Take a dip in one of the many patrolled beaches strewn throughout its length. Once hunger pangs arise, make your way to the main drag, where countless bars, restaurants and eateries call home, including some of the region\u2019s best\u00a0cafes. That\u2019s not all!\u00a0The Sunshine Coast also hosts fun attractions like SeaLife, the famous Australia Zoo, Eumundi Markets and The Ginger Factory suited for all ages.<\/p><p>Another unique experience offered by the Sunshine Coast is doing the Great Beach Drive. It can\u2019t get better than this: A road trip adventure on 380km off-the-beaten-track from\u00a0Noosa\u00a0to\u00a0Hervey Bay. Accessible only by 4WD, the Great Beach Drive is no ordinary road trip. In fact, there\u2019s barely a road insight: you\u2019ll be spending most of your driving hours cruising along the sand highways (one of a kind) of the\u00a0Great Sandy National Park\u00a0and\u00a0Fraser Island. Whether you take your own wheels, rent a 4X4 or outsource the driving to an expert, this is one exhilarating ride you won\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d295d67 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d295d67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Spot those playful Humpback Whales<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f793b58 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f793b58\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"502\" height=\"377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotc.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Blue-Dolphin-Marine-Tours-Hervey-Bay.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-10767\" alt=\"Blue-Dolphin-Marine-Tours-Hervey-Bay\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotc.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Blue-Dolphin-Marine-Tours-Hervey-Bay.webp 502w, https:\/\/www.sotc.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Blue-Dolphin-Marine-Tours-Hervey-Bay-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 502px) 100vw, 502px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f24fda5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f24fda5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A crowd favourite and a total soul-stirring experience is whale watching in Queensland. Every year between July and October these magnificent creatures cruise up to Queensland\u2019s east coast for warmer waters. One of the best things to do in Queensland is staring them eye to eye from the back of a boat. Hop aboard a cruise and enjoy watching these magnificent creatures grace the waters of Queensland with playfulness. Some of the most famous whale watching spots are Harvey Bay on Fraser Coast (home to whale watching in Queensland), Gold Coast, North Stradbroke Island in Brisbane, Mooloolaba in Sunshine Coast, Lady Musgrave Island and Lady Elliot Island in Southern Great Barrier Reef and The Whitsundays.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76b254f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"76b254f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Take surfing lessons on the shores of Gold Coast\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-662d7db elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"662d7db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotc.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Girl-with-surfboard-looking-at-ocean-wave-splash.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-10768\" alt=\"Girl-with-surfboard-looking-at-ocean-wave-splash\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotc.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Girl-with-surfboard-looking-at-ocean-wave-splash.webp 576w, https:\/\/www.sotc.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Girl-with-surfboard-looking-at-ocean-wave-splash-300x200.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58723aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58723aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Gold Coast is the Mecca of everything surfing, so while you\u2019re here steal a chance and get some surfing lessons to hone those board skills.
