Eating out in Mission Beach

I'm a big fan of eating out, breakfast, lunch or dinner doesn't matter. Living in Mission Beach there are so many options. Eating alone, casual catchup or to celebrate a special occasion all are covered, from fish and chips, thai food, italian, pub meal and much much more, so get out there and check out your food options, you won't be disappointed.

The Rain is Back !!

Just when it looked like the fine weather in Mission Beach was here to stay. . . it started to bucket down with rain !! Let's hope it doesn't last too long.

Book or not to book ahead

How organised do you need to be when your travelling? I like to be a bit organised and go with the flow as well, but one of the risks with going with the flow is that sometimes you miss out. Here at the Mission Beach Information Station we often come across accommodation and tours that are booked out for a day or even longer. When your on a tight schedule this can sometimes be a bit frustrating, so if there is a particular hostel you want to stay in or a boat you want to sail on then come in and let us help you book them.

Dolphin Beach House

NOOSA: Welcome to 'Dolphins at Sunshine Beach'. Known as the best budget accommodation option in Noosa and located only 5 minutes from Noosa's town centre and 200 metres from beautiful Sunshine Beach. You will find our breezy Guatemalan design and shady outdoor areas provide you with the perfect retreat after a days touring or beachcombing.

Skydive in Mission Beach

I had just had a visit from 4 young ladies who went skydiving in Mission Beach this morning, and didn't they look fabulous. They were all windblown but had the biggest grins on their faces. So if you to want to have fun then come in and visit us at the Mission Beach Information Station and we will book you a skydive with one of the two companies who land here on the beach!

Fishing in Mission Beach

Last weekend a few friends of mine went fishing in one of the local creeks that flows out onto Wongaling Beach. Surprisingly they caught 2 fair sized barramundi and a couple of mud crabs!! So, if your like me and you like to keep your feet on dry land , why not have a go at one of the local creeks here in Mission Beach.

The sunshine is back

The sunshine has made its way back to Mission Beach, yeah! It is lovely being outside and enjoying the fine weather. A great way is to head out to the Reef for a bit of snorkelling or scuba diving, and luckily Calypso is going out tomorrow and we can help you go with them, just come in to the Mission Beach Information Station and we will make sure you have a fabulous day.

Nana Thai

When I go out for dinner my first choice is always Thai, the good news is that even in Mission Beach this is an option. I went out to Nana Thai on Saturday night for a friends birthday and the food was fabulous, there were 15 of us eating and we all enjoyed a variety of meals. If your looking for a relaxing night out with good food then this is my recommendation.

Monster Market is back

Its Easter Sunday and that means the Monster Market is back on in Mission Beach. If your in town get yourself down to MARCS Park between 8am - 1pm. The market will be held on the last Sunday of the month from next month. Go and see if you can find yourself a bargain!

Skydiving !!

After a very long nervous wait I was lucky enough to go skydiving yesterday . . it was awesome !!!! I am so glad that I finally did it. If your in town , I would highly recommend going skydiving, the views of the reef, islands and rainforest are fantastic. What a great way to see beautiful Mission Beach !

Trying to calm the nerves

I am booked for a skydive this morning but the weather in Mission Beach can't seem to make up it's mind. The anticipation of not knowing if im jumping or not is killing me !!!

Driving around Mission

After a failed first attempt I finally got my learners license yesterday, YAY !!!!! Now I can drive around beautiful Mission Beach as much as I like.

Travellers Hideaway

skydiving weather

Here in Mission Beach the weather looks like it's finally starting to fine up, hopefully it lasts for more than a day ! A friend and I were due to go skydiving last weekend, unfortunately we had to cancel because of the dicey weather, hopefully this weekend we will have more luck =)

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to our lovely trainee who is celebrating her sweet sixteen in Mission Beach today, unfortunately her planned present, a skydive, may not happen today due to the rain that is falling as we speak, I guess we will have to wait a bit longer to hear how she enjoyed landing on the beach in Mission Beach.

Council Elections

Residents of Mission Beach are voting for the first time on the new amalgamated council. The Johnstone & Cardwell Shires have joined together to become the Cassowary Coast Regional Council.
Good luck to all the running candidates. May Mission Beach reap the benefits of the new Council in coming years eg: A new swimming pool!!!

Stuck in Mission Beach

Its been a bit wet here in Mission Beach today. The roads between Tully and Mission Beach and El Arish and Mission Beach were cut off with flood waters. We had some very soggy and not too happy travellers.......but hey....who could complain about being stuck in beautiful Mission Beach for an extra day. All roads are clear now and traffic has returned to normal.

Sending Freight

If you are sending freight on the bus you really need to think about wrapping it carefully. We take lots of care with your parcel here in Mission Beach but cannot be sure if others will do the same. Personally I am a real bubble wrap fan!
