Alexandra Headland Guide
Laid back and welcoming, Alexandra Headland - or simply “Alex” to the locals - is a popular seaside resort community on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, right between Mooloolaba and Maroochydore.
Outdoor enthusiasts love Alexandra Headland for its beautiful beaches, thrilling surf, fishing, biking, swimming and much more. The best outdoor skate park on the Sunshine Coast is located here, as is the Alexandra Headland Surf Club, where you can watch the pros catch a wave or try your hand with a private surf lesson. There is plenty of picnicking and BBQ facilities, so come on out and make a day of it!
The bustling Alexandra Parade is where you will find the majority of Alexandra Headland’s best restaurants and cafes. Overlooking the beach, Alexandra Parade has authentic Australian, Indian, Thai and fresh seafood restaurants. You’ll find something new to love every time you walk along the Parade. Enjoy al fresco dining with stunning ocean views or at the end of the day relax with a fantastic cocktail in a cosy lounge.
Seaside apartment resorts abound in Alexandra Headland. These self-contained apartments are perfect for a family holiday, romantic getaway or a relaxing group trip.
