Car rental location Maroochydore Airport

Location information for Maroochydore Airport

In 1997, Maroochydore Airport was renamed to Sunshine Coast Airport after the popular southeast Queensland holiday destination it serves. The airport's Marcoola location, 70 miles north of Brisbane, offers unbeatable access with car hire in Maroochydore Airport to the Sunshine Coast's main retail and administrative hub of Maroochydore, six miles away.

Maroochydore Airport facilities

With almost 917,000 visitors in 2009, this airport is now Australia's 15th most active, with non-stop flights to Lady Elliot Island, Melbourne and Sydney. Up to 300 people can sit in the Departures lounge. People may compare car hire at the Hertz, Avis, Budget, Europcar and Thrifty desks which are located close to the Baggage Claim area.

Maroochydore Airport excursions

Maroochydore is conveniently situated in the middle of the Sunshine Coast, between the upmarket kite surfing centre of Noosa and the more laid-back beachside community of Caloundra. Mount Coolum National Park and its namesake volcano lie north of Marcoola. About 140 climbers scale Mount Coolum's summit each day. The Sunshine Coast is also home to the subtropical rainforest of Kondalilla National Park and Steve Irwin's famous Australia Zoo.

Best time to visit

The Sunshine Coast certainly earns its name with about seven hours of daily sunshine at all times of the year. Cool Pacific Ocean breezes accompany warm summer temperatures between December and February, the Sunshine Coast's busiest tourism period. Spring and autumn aren't much cooler, but they are far less crowded. Winter is also pleasant, but sometimes the water is too cold to swim in.

Car rental in Maroochydore Airport

The Bruce Highway is the largest thoroughfare between the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane, but motorists can also use car rental in Maroochydore Airport to access the Sunshine Motorway. Nicklin Way begins at the Sunshine Motorway's southern end and travels between Mooloolaba and Caloundra. The Sunshine Coast's rapidly growing population means local roads are becoming increasingly congested.
