Favorite Breweries/Cider Farms/Distilleries
The Sunshine Coast is becoming known for its craft beer, cider farms and distilleries. Many of these properties are fun for all as you can visit the farm where they are made to enjoy a tasting as well as local food. Most are family friendly and have areas for the children to play. We are happy to assist with your trip planning!
