With average April water temperatures of 26°C, Noosa’s sparkling beaches will be well and truly warm enough for a surfing lesson. But there’s also lush hinterland to hike, the boutiques on Hastings Street to hit, buzzy restaurants to try and Sofitel Noosa Pacific Resort’s pool bar to enjoy. A scoop of pistachio gelato at Massimo’s Gelateria can’t be missed.
