oUt&aBoUt Rainbow Beach
Rainbow Beach, on Queensland’s Gympie Cooloola Coast, lies between the Sunshine Coast and Fraser Coast about 240km north of Brisbane.
it is a unique little seaside town surrounded by the beautiful Great Sandy National Park, an area of amazing natural attractions and expansive beaches including of course, its famous Coloured Sands.
The area boasts a huge range of activities as diverse as fishing, surfing and bushwalking, to hang-gliding and even skydiving.
If your tastes are a little tamer, however, there’s no better way to end a day than by watching the sun set over nearby Tin Can Bay from Carlo Sandblow where you’ll enjoy 360-degree views.
If your tastes are a little more culinary, you won’t be disappointed; Rainbow Beach has a great selection of alfresco cafes, contemporary waterfront restaurants and fine dining.
On Rainbow Beach Road, adjacent to the beach, you’ll find a great selection of cafes for breakfast and as well as a large variety store selling surf wear, curios and gifts. Locals recommend Cherry's by the sea at the Rainbow Beach Sports Club, which is open for lunch and dinner and offers a fantastic steak and seafood menu. Order from a selection of T-bone, New York sirloin, eye fillet or wagyu rump and be sure to add their famous reef sauce:

Perched on the highest peak in Rainbow Beach and adjacent to Carlo Sandblow you’ll find Waterview Bistro, the best meal- with-a-view in town. Chef Justin Walker is passionate about the local produce found on his doorstep and his seafood-dominated menus are complemented by the best each season has to offer.
The best place to meet the locals for
a drink and take in more break-taking views is the Rainbow Beach Surf Club, located on the town’s eastern most point right above the beach.
