We wander down the famous main street - Hastings Street - and give you an overview of the glamorous shops, restaurants and bars along the way. There are many great restaurants to tempt you in Noosa and we share some of our favourites, including the Noosa Surf club. Noosa accommodation is varied, and we have a couple of favourites, plus we give you some other great options.
