About Noosa Heads
Noosa Heads is a town on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland, Australia, where a headland of national park separates the main beach from a series of points. The waves run along those points to the right as a surfer rides them towards the shore, and the points are commonly named First Point, Johnsons, National Park, Tea Tree Bay and Granite Bay, and they are usually described as long and gentle, which is why Noosa is closely associated with longboards. Because the points face north, they need a large swell to reach around the coast, so the surf is often absent for long stretches. It usually arrives in the warmer months, typically from around December to March, when tropical cyclones send swell down the coast. A long-running surf festival is held here most years.
