Noosaville, located at the northern end of the Sunshine Coast between Noosa Heads and Tewantin also lies against the Noosa River. Once a small fishing & logging port, the town has grown significantly over the last 10 years due to the population boom across the Sunshine Coast as well as nearby Noosa Heads having little room to expand. The town has a wonderful river frontage with long stretches of foreshore parkland complimented by the adjacent shopping precinct along the Esplanade (Gympie Tce). To the south of town lies the expansive Lake Weyba and a portion of Noosa National Park.
