regional historyNoosa’s reputation as a tourist destination began long before white man settled the region. For almost 40,000 years the Kabi Tribe inhabited the area.
By nature’s standards they were a rich, successful tribe who enjoyed the natural abundance and pleasures of the area. It was logging and then gold that first attracted the European settlers to the region in the early 1800’s. Logs were rafted down the Noosa River to Tewantin to meet the ocean going vessels. In the late 1800’s, Tewantin became the Gateway to the Gympie Goldfields. It was then that settlers started to use the beaches and fishing estuaries of Noosa. Noosa has changed significantly since those days.

regional historyCoolum beach was first opened to visitors in 1918. Coolum became popular despite the di�culties of accessing the area by horse and dray, or by boat to Coolum Creek. By 1922, a rough road had been constructed which lead to the first allotments of land being developed.
By 1925, the cane tram from Nambour was carrying weekend visitors to the area. Many visitors stayed, seeing Coolum become a quiet farming area with one small shop and a one teacher school.
Coolum was declared a township in 1946 and increased in a�uence after World War II. With the completion of the David Low Way along the coast in the early 1960’s, Coolum’s population and tourism increased to more than 100 times that of 50 years ago.

However many would not know that in
the 1830’s there was by-law which banned
swimming during daylight hours. This may
seem unthinkable to us today, however our
forefathers felt otherwise. Thankfully public
opinion claimed that it was immoral, and this
by-law was overruled in early 1902.
Australia’s passion for enjoying some of the
best that the Australian landscape has to
o�er, subsequently created the need for
Surf Lifesaving.
The first Australian volunteer Surf Life Saving
Clubs (SLSC) were formed in 1907 on
Sydney beaches. They then rapidly popped
up throughout Australian beaches. The Maroochy Surf Club is the oldest Surf Club on the Sunshine Coast, being incorporated in 1916.
Many of the locals would have grown up with surf lifesaving as an integral part of their lives, however for those of you who are unaware of who Surf Lifesavers are and what they do, they are men and women who generously volunteer their time to provide supervision on our beaches throughout Australia. Currently, Surf Lifesaving in Queensland has over 8,500 active lifesavers who patrol the beach through community based volunteer clubs.

dining out® sat down with Keith Jackson, the Manager of The Maroochy Surf Club to find out a little more about the Coast’s longest running clubs.
Many may not know that the Maroochy Surf Club
is actually the oldest Surf Club on the Sunshine
Coast, being incorporated in 1916. Keith goes
on to mention that “with no loss of life on the
beach since incorporation, the Maroochy Surf
Club has become one of the most iconic surf
clubs in Australia, as well as being well known
and respected in National and International Life
Saving circles”.
The Supporters Club also o�ers an award
winning 220 seat functions room, fully equipped
TAB, delightful Bistro with outside dining, bar and
gaming that is the ideal venue to relax in while
watching some of the best views from Noosa
to Mooloolaba.
We also stopped o� to have a delicious meal
with Mal Wright, the General Manager of the
Coolum Beach Surf Lifesaving Club. Another
long-established club, which has been serving
the local community and tourists visiting Coolum
Beach beach each year since 1919.
Coolum Beach is known for its spectacular
setting with the cli�s of Point Perry framing the
vista from the south of the club to distant views
of Noosa Heads to the North. Coolum Beach
SLSC has a proud record of no drowning’s
between the Red and Yellow flags and is placed
in the top three clubs for patrolling on the
Sunshine Coast in 2011/12.

Sydney beaches. They then rapidly popped
up throughout Australian beaches. The Maroochy Surf Club is the oldest Surf Club on the Sunshine Coast, being incorporated in 1916.
Many of the locals would have grown up with surf lifesaving as an integral part of their lives, however for those of you who are unaware of who Surf Lifesavers are and what they do, they are men and women who generously volunteer their time to provide supervision on our beaches throughout Australia. Currently, Surf Lifesaving in Queensland has over 8,500 active lifesavers who patrol the beach through community based volunteer clubs.

dining out® sat down with Keith Jackson, the Manager of The Maroochy Surf Club to find out a little more about the Coast’s longest running clubs.
Many may not know that the Maroochy Surf Club
is actually the oldest Surf Club on the Sunshine
Coast, being incorporated in 1916. Keith goes
on to mention that “with no loss of life on the
beach since incorporation, the Maroochy Surf
Club has become one of the most iconic surf
clubs in Australia, as well as being well known
and respected in National and International Life
Saving circles”.
The Supporters Club also o�ers an award
winning 220 seat functions room, fully equipped
TAB, delightful Bistro with outside dining, bar and
gaming that is the ideal venue to relax in while
watching some of the best views from Noosa
to Mooloolaba.
We also stopped o� to have a delicious meal
with Mal Wright, the General Manager of the
Coolum Beach Surf Lifesaving Club. Another
long-established club, which has been serving
the local community and tourists visiting Coolum
Beach beach each year since 1919.
Coolum Beach is known for its spectacular
setting with the cli�s of Point Perry framing the
vista from the south of the club to distant views
of Noosa Heads to the North. Coolum Beach
SLSC has a proud record of no drowning’s
between the Red and Yellow flags and is placed
in the top three clubs for patrolling on the
Sunshine Coast in 2011/12.

Maroochydore was given its name in 1842 by Andrew Petrie during his exploration of the coast. It was derived from the word “Muru Kutchi-dha” Aboriginal for “the place of red bills’ that is the black swans. Tom Petrie in 1862 explored the coastal areas for timber resources. In 1884 William Pettigrew, Brisbane sawmill owner, established a depot and wharf at Maroochydore.

regional historyThe name Mooloolaba was derived from either the Aboriginal word “Mulu” for snapper fish or from “Mullu” meaning red-bellied black snake. Tom Petrie explored the area for timber resources in 1862. By 1864, William Pettigrew had developed a timber trade which included a timber depot, and wharf at Mooloolah heads.
In 1919 Mooloolah heads was developed as a fishing industry. It was favoured as a port because of the safe access o�ered to vessels by the protection of Point Cartwright. It provided the perfect deep water required for trawlers.
January 1st 1921 was the first sale of land and Mooloolah Heads was renamed to Mooloolaba. Today, Mooloolaba is the home of the largest fishing fleet on the east coast.

regional historyCaloundra is named after the Aboriginal word “Callanda” which means beautiful place in Kabi language. However, there are some discrepancies that it may be derived from the word “Cullowundoor” meaning beach tree, because of the trees that grow on Caloundra Heads.
The first permanent settler was John Ballinger, who selected land for sheep farming south of Lake Currimundi.
During the 1880’s, Caloundra began to acquire its reputation as a seaside resort. The first hotel was built in 1885 on Shelly beach, and by 1905 Wilson’s Guest House was built on Dicky Beach.

regional historyThe Kabi tribe from the coast would use a small track to climb up to gather and feast on the Bunya tree fruit. It was a place of celebration where they exchanged songs, stories, tools and ornaments.
The first settlers were in 1887, and their first task was to clear some land. Huge hardwood trees were prized in Europe and locally, making logging the local industry.
The sub tropical climate then led to fruit and diary farming. 1904 the Maleny Butter factory opened. From the 1920’s, the Hinterland had become a thriving mountain holiday resort with many guesthouses. In 1970, as the roads improved, the area became a pleasant daytrip from coastal towns and Brisbane, changing the focus of local industries from farming to tourism.
