About Town: Stab's Guide To The Sunshine Coast
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 січ 2025
- Welcome to the first episode of About Town, a new series from Stab and Summer Bright in which we explore, with gusto, the most vibrant pockets of Australian surf culture. We’re all fond of a road trip, or a weekend getaway; It’s the Australian surf dream. And if you happen to live in Oz, there needn’t be any reason why you should look beyond its coastlines.
It was Stab and Summer Bright’s wish to unfold the secrets of what makes some of our favourite surf towns great: Where to get coffee, where to surf, where to jump off, who to watch out for in the lineup, where to dine, where to enjoy some post-surf suds, and more. And of course, we tapped some local pros to be our hosts.
We chose surf towns that haven’t been overly-documented. For our first episode, we skipped Coolangatta, wonderful though it is, instead looking further north to its lesser known cousin, the Sunshine Coast. Come jump in the 4WD with Mitch Coleborn and Harry Bryant, and let’s get to know one Australia’s most enjoyable surf trip destinations.
Just knowing that there’s a photo of those two legends out there - that they’ve met each other in person - makes living a lot easier.
Love how much less seriously the boys up the sunny coast take themselves compared to the fellas down here on the gold coast
That's exactly what I thought when I was there, it's awesome
funs the game in the sunny coast. Did you try Cheese Block and Sharkies when you came down?
Australians just do the whole surf lifestyle so much better than us. Its what California surfers wish we had. We pay for parking or walk forever, they drive on the beach and set up camp as on example.
We wish. Getting the same here. There are some places, yes, but not generally unless your a long way from town.
Not in Sydney mate
You'd lose your shit in New Zealand then hahah
@@fuubaa6 why?
@@overanalyzings new zealand has pumping surf around the country and no people. Most of new zealands best breaks are back onto farm land or Bush and rugged coastline. Alot of waves gotta get to by boat or jetskis = no people
5:35 couldn't be more prouder of Australia, two legends
kelly is from florida
🤣
This makes me so nostalgic...
I grew up in Wurtulla- left when I was 20 returning when I’m 40 after living in Europe way too long-can’t wait!!
Love love love to you guys. So nice to see this vid stuck in Melbourne winter industrial city and just good to remind me that people still laugh and have fun and take it easy. Cheers.
yeah im from melbourne and have always lived here but it would be amazing to live up north on the sunny coast
Just got back from a two week surf holiday to Noosa 10 minutes ago and I’m already watching videos of surfing Noosa on UA-cam. Love the place hey. Great vid lads🤙
Just found this - don't know how - been surfing the Sunny Coast a long time - awesome stuff boys.
I am addicted to that cold comfort song I’ve listened to it like 50 times already lol
What‘s this Song called?
@@lisas.9123 Beach Funeral by Cold Comfort, they're a band from Ukraine.
Recently moved from sunny coast to mid northern nsw, no regrets. Grew up on the sunny coast, 25years changed this place so much. Still good waves on their day but the crowds are thick and furious considering the quantity and quality. A few lesser surfed reefs and banks can keep you sane but all in all I'm getting uncrowded sessions with nobody around at better waves. So long sunny coast and good luck to anyone trying to score anything without the swarm of kooks.
And i bet where you are now gets far more swell.
I'm sure these sort of video's with "rad crew" wearing Greenough haircuts and cool tats will fix the crowd problem at the sunny coast.
I'm sorry to hear your story, unfortunately I think it's most probably happening everywhere, it definitely is heading that way down in Torquay :(
What are the local councils thinking? Ahh yes of course...growth.....sigh
rather be surfing with kooks than these guys who absolutely rip!
Kooks gotta start somewhere bruddah
Yeah the overdevelopment is bullshit, so horrible to watch
Miss living on the sunny coast, more jobs here in Melbourne but hopefully move back soon
You should do a video on the Sunshine coast hinterland. Totally different vibe but it'd be interesting enough.
Anastasia Lines I second that
Fully true though it’s so pretty
Callum Blakeney fuck you've found me online ah
real quick stab is a surfing magazine, why the fuck would they do it on the hinterland
Talk about the Egyptians mining gold and building pyramids ay
Sunshine is the best place to hang out 🤙🏼
Love the sunny coast. Wurtulla is my local break and can be unreal on a light westerly and 3 footers
Awesome showcase of our beautiful region guys, well done :) Clint + Aimee
Lived in Sunshine Beach in the early 80s for 3years great spot
Am I the only one that clicked on this video because of that guys hair cut?
no
hhahahha ur not

Hahahahahaha!!
Harry Bryant kills with dead trimz

I’ve got a thought just put a huge sign at the new Caloundra Rd up grade. “ welcome to sunny coast retirement home”
Great footage ... how much do you love living here ..... lucky as !
Bea Chesney it’s good as
This film was sick. Had a real skate vid vibe to it

No one gives a fuck loser.
Love the sunny coast Aye
yeewww cant wait to check it out one day!
2:45 i lived in that house for 5 years.
That’s a legendary haircut
Nice little video. It would have good to have footage of Old Woman Island lefts and a couple of points.
If only the sunny coast had more sustainable jobs and cheaper houses
tell me about it i lived up there for 2 years to build the hospital. once that finished i had to move back down south to avoid the daily commute to brisbane.
lukeb5855 I was born and raised here but I'm over going down the Bruce. I think it's time for me to admit defeat and leave
Nooo, its perfect now. it keeps the place empty
Empty of opportunities of work
fless93 Flesser and more sustainable people
Love the sunny coast 🙌🏼 wurtulla forever brah 🤙🏼
This is as Ozzie as it gets.
Are you serious? If that's Aussie we are heading further down the USA pathway!
Nah, there was no racism or shrimps on the barbee. But very close. 🤙🤣

Dylan Ouellet thank you!
The start scene near Gardak street is where I lived... funny how out of all the places, my house is seen
My street where I grew up (oogar street)
I grew up there as well 😂
Do you have any advice or tips a young person wanting to move interstate and study in the Sunshine Coast? What do you when a cyclone comes? Is it a secure place living there?
btw loved the video
Back in the 70s early 80s i loved going up the Sunny Coast as it was nice and quiet.
Then the developers discovered it and now I prefer the Gold Coast and down to Byron but it is also going down the toilet!!!
Its gold coast's hippie cousin, its pretty fun still and you can get your own little breaks to yourself and your boys.
These are rad
What’s the song @4:16? So good
Did you ever get it?
Rektest - not my friend
since when are the waves this good!!
i would like to know all the music that they use in this video. So cool.
We surfed secret waves up this way recently. Cool.
Noosa - best place on the planet!!
I know you probaly wont say but where was the last place you surfed at? I just moved into the sunny coast and soo keen to check it out?? Thanks
LADYFINGERS Noosa North Shore up the end of the next to the lighthouse. Its a bit of a mission to get there, gotta catch a ferry then drive down the beach for 30min ish. The entire strip of beach has got no cell reception except for when youre up at the lighthouse. Great spot for camping.
J W thanks heaps for the reply man. So up near double island point??
LADYFINGERS No worries and yea
I’ve Lived here most of my life ,except for those few small stints away

“Meet ya at the fezza?” 😂😂 fuck I love being Australian aye

I felt like the video was a bit Noosa based... I know it’s got the best waves but it’s not really part of the sunny coast, ask any local.
I’d definitely consider Noosa sunny coast

cold comfort - beach funeral
Modern beer/surf commercial.
does a little docco about the Sunny Coast waves, only talks about the coffe for half the run time, and then shows a 1 sec wave out of a rock........
for those watching this and who dont live on the Sunny Coast, we do have waaaaaay more waves and points, and long waves, and beach breaks, and any other type of awesome points not even featured/mentioned here. They arent "secret" either, so no idea on the why focus the docco on one beach break wave right on the south edge of the Sunny Coast..... So disappointed of this film. Its like talking about the Gold Coast, but only showing a wave in Main Beach/Surfers Paradise
Where is that left?
fuck that photo at 5:30 has to be the sickest thing I have ever seen
Who’s here from Bli Bli sunny coast???
yep
carly mitchell will never sell the house here in caloundra
too live in phuket
don't worry about it!
my brother can be full of shit!
hahahaha
love always sis
