Noosa Tri Hits the Beach

Noosa Main Beach will be the hot spot for action on Sunday 1st November when the Noosa Triathlon kicks off for its 32nd year.

In an exciting move the Noosa Triathlon will move its swim leg of the course from the Noosa River waterways to start from Noosa's iconic Main Beach.

Tourism Noosa CEO Damien Massingham said the move of the swim event to Noosa Main Beach will put the spotlight on one of Australia's best coastal and aquatic experiences and showcase Noosa's stunning natural beauty.

“Set against the backdrop of the stunning Noosa National Park with its iconic headlands, Noosa Main Beach, or Laguna Bay as it is also known is one of the only beaches along Australia's east coast that faces north, providing a calm, sheltered bay for swimmers”.

“With over 8000 athletes competing in the 1500 metre ocean swim, it will be a magical sight to see for the 25 000 plus spectators who come to watch this amazing event as well as the additional national and international views who will see the event and Noosa images beamed around the world”.

“The Noosa Triathlon is the leading event of its kind in the southern hemisphere and the second biggest in the world and it really is great news that the event has moved to Noosa Main Beach showcasing one of Noosa's key assets and one of the best coastal and aquatic experiences in Australia.”

“This evolution of the Noosa Triathlon will also help to further cement Noosa's reputation as one of Australia's leading regional events destinations” said Mr Massingham.
