As you no doubt already know, the sun is already out in time for the Queensland Spring Vacation, and the truth is; there is simply no better place to spend the school holidays than the Sunshine Coast. Not only are there plenty of things to do and many places to see, but there is also ample Sunshine Coast accommodation available. However, with the famous Coolum Kite Festival scheduled to take place on the 3rd and 4th of October, visitors should make sure they book their Sunshine Coast accommodation well in advance in order to avoid disappointment.
Essentially, the Coolum Kite Festival showcases some of the most magnificent and most unusual kites you could ever imagine, and of course this year won't be any different, in that there is just so much happening during the festival weekend. Also, this year will see some of Australia's top kite surfers competing with each other for a position on the podium. Whatever you do; make sure you find your spot on the beach to witness this spectacular event.
If you've ever been under the impression that kites are small toys which young kids play with, you're sadly mistaken. Instead, you'll get to see small kites, giant kites, weird kites and funny kites. In fact, you'll see some which are quite literally a marvel in their own rights. Of course, over and above the kite festival, there is also so much else happening on the 3rd and 4th of October, which is why you should make a point of visiting the Sunshine Coast at this time. The great thing is that the kite festival is a perfect event which the whole family can enjoy. Let's face it; who wouldn't want to relax on the beach to watch the kite surfing competition in full swing. If kite surfing doesn't quite rock your boat, you could of course choose to chill out and listen to some great talented musicians instead.
Even though the kites will dominate the air for some period of time, that's not all you'll see in the heavens above. Instead, you should also make sure that you're there to see the Ramblers Skydivers in action. This crazy bunch of daredevils will perform a number of death defying stunts and displays during the course of the weekend. In fact, if you think you have what it takes, you can even book a tandem skydive with one of the Ramblers. Who could blame you if you feel you've had an amazing day, but be warned, because the night event is just as thrilling. In fact the night event is more often than not the most intense event of the weekend, and if rumors are anything to go by, this year's event will be like nothing before. All things considered, you need to book your Sunshine Coast accommodation now or else you may end up missing out.
If you'd rather not take part in a tandem sky dive, but instead, you'd like to try your hand at flying a kite, then you should consider booking a place for you and your family at the kite making workshop which is at the Kenilworth Community College on the 27th of September. For a fee of just $6, you can have an opportunity to build your very own kite which of course you can end up flying yourself. If you'd rather not build a kite, you can simply stand back and watch Tony rice, a master kite builder, at work.
It's not without reason that the Sunshine Coast has become so immensely popular between people looking for an ideal Spring vacation. Considering you'll be in the heart of a world famous kite festival, kite surfing championships, and even a spectacular skydiving event, there are not many other places apart from the Sunshine Coast which you need to be considering. The sun is shining, the ocean is shimmering, and some of the very best Sunshine Coast accommodation is awaiting you.
