You might recognize Noosa, Australia, as a glamorous beach destination, but what you might not know is that 35% of the shire is protected as a National Park. Whether on land or at sea, chances are that the places you are exploring are part of the Noosa UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, which covers more than 87,000 hectares of biodiversity. The community has long been protecting its diverse ecosystems from development and re-establishing wildlife corridors. Visitors can be part of this mission to lessen the impact of their trips by reducing single-use plastics, exploring car-free with free public transport, and engaging in regenerative experiences through the Tread Lightly Noosa initiative. Here, every choice you make could help ensure Noosa remains a thriving, biodiverse haven for generations to come.
