Ettamogah Pub

While vacationing in the Sunshine Coast, most of the families choose to holiday in Noosa or Mooloolaba, as these areas have many other tourist attractions apart from the beaches and the water activities.

The Mooloolaba area boasts a number of family oriented theme parks and several entertainment centres exclusively for the children of all age groups. These fun parks are easily accessible from all areas in Sunshine Coast and will surely offer you and your family some hours of fun and excitement.

While you can enjoy swimming with the giant sharks in Underwater World, you can go exploring something new at the Sunshine castle. You can also take the challenge to cross the amazing Bellingham Maze, or perhaps spend a day at the popular Ettamogah Pub, right next to the renowned Aussie World.

Ettamogah Pub is probably the highly photographed pub in the world; created by the legendary cartoonist Ken Maynard in 1959, the Ettamogah Pub gradually became famous through Ken’s regular cartoons in the Australasian Post magazine.

Today, Ettamogah is one of the leading tourist attractions; standing at an impressive height of 18m, making it is one of the must visited places in the Sunshine Coast. The peculiar fame of this pub is due to its quirky shape and the caricature exterior, where you will find a 1927 model of Chevy truck on the top of the bright red roof.

While the pub serves guests 7 days a week, guests relish on the wide varieties of drinks served here everyday. There is also a restaurant located upstairs in the pub, called Bluey’s Bar and Grill that serves lip-smacking food for lunch and dinner.
