Noosa, an Australian holiday

It was in the late 1980's, and I was 12. I can remember the earthy scent of eucalyptus, and feel the warm sunlit paths of the Noosa National Park as I walked around to Alexandria Bay .

The memory of cooling down by sliding into the deep blue water just before the Devil's Kitchen headland and feasting on natural oysters has become a catalyst behind a driving force to return to Noosa every year since.

Back then, the village of Noosa Heads , a five-minute walk from the entrance to the National Park , was a jumble of ordinary vacation units, a campground and shops. It was no different to many other Australian coastal towns.

Noosa was always going to be distinguished by its remarkable setting. The holiday accommodation strip is almost completely surrounded by water. In the early days, I am told the only way of reaching the beach was by riverboat along the stunning Noosa River.

Noosa's main beach is north facing, protected from southerly winds by a rocky headland with scatterings of rain forest throughout. The sun filled enclave known as Hastings Street has always been a buzz of happy tourists with an air of an almost sublime, tropical relaxation center where interesting and successful people take time out from their busy lives.

Once such interesting person who became successful for setting his focus on changed his life after being inspired by my website is a guy who goes by the name of Nomis.

If you want to be inspired I urge you to visit a chapter in his life changing story about how he built a money making website inspired by a visit to Noosa that has since lead him calling Noosa home. Its a website about bargain-holidays .
