The 2019 Noosa Classic Gran Fondo will be an event to remember but the experience isn\u2019t limited to Sunday.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s plenty to do in and around the stunning Noosa region and over the coming weeks we\u2019ll be exploring on your behalf!<\/p>\n

First up is the Noosa River.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Roughly 60km in length, the Noosa River dominates the region, flowing north to south before emptying into Laguna Bay.<\/p>\n

After European settlement the river was primarily used for logging but it has since transformed into a gem of Noosa\u2019s holiday scene.<\/p>\n

The river provides spectacular views (especially at sunset), peaceful picnic spots and plenty of eateries dotted along its banks.<\/p>\n

Grab some fish and chips and watch the sun go down or take an evening stroll and stop for ice cream.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h4>\n

What else can I do?<\/h4>\n

For those feeling a little more adventurous there is a plethora of activities<\/a> to do on the water.<\/p>\n

Visitors can hire a jet ski or for a more calming experience why not try out a kayak or paddleboard?<\/p>\n

Cruises<\/a> are offered as well ranging from fully-catered trips to BYO. Sit back and relax as you survey all that the region and its wildlife have to offer.<\/p>\n
