Peregian Beach

Peregian Beach is a long sandy beach and coastal suburb in the Shire of Noosa on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, located between Noosa Heads and Coolum Beach. It is known for its wide white-sand shoreline, patrolled swimming area and relaxed village atmosphere. Backed by dunes, foreshore parkland and Peregian Beach Village square, it is notable for its fortnightly community markets, consistent surf breaks and family-friendly environment.

Visitors can expect a wide, open sandy beach stretching for several kilometres with a patrolled swimming area near the Peregian Beach Surf Life Saving Club. The foreshore features a grassy park, picnic and barbecue areas, and a small village square with cafes and shops across the road. The beach is suited to swimming, surfing, walking and sunbathing, with views along the Sunshine Coast. On market Sundays the foreshore park hosts stalls with arts, crafts and produce.

The area lies within the traditional lands of the Kabi Kabi (Gubbi Gubbi) people. Modern settlement developed from the 1950s-1960s as a coastal residential and holiday subdivision within the Noosa region, centred on the surf beach and later the village square.

Peregian Beach is known for its relaxed Sunshine Coast coastal lifestyle and community focus, centred on the village square and the long-running Peregian Beach Market in the foreshore park, which showcases local arts, crafts and produce.
