Shopping in Maroochydore
Bursting with bargains, a shopping bonanza
from bazaars to boutiques!

Maroochydore is the hub of the universe for shopaholics as far as the Sunshine Coast is concerned. Well known for its amazing shopping precinct, Sunshine Plaza Maroochydore is the shopping mecca of the Sunny Coast; shoppers flock from Noosa, Caloundra & the Hinterland when they are in need of some serious retail therapy.

The Plaza, as the locals call it, has become the central meeting place & a village in itself, where families & friends gather to catch up over lunch or a coffee, enjoy a movie or just shop & browse the day away. Although you’ll love Myer, Target, KMart & hundreds of specialty stores to explore, the best part about Maroochydore is that The Plaza is not all there is on offer — in fact, far from it! Here you're only scratching the shiny surface…

Take a look around. There are many other retail shopping centres, great op shops & other discounters offering up a veritable bargain hunter’s paradise as well as professional & trade precincts dotted throughout Maroochydore. In fact, pretty much every type of independent retailer, franchise, shop or service you’d expect in a capital city, you’ll find here in this vibrant, yet highly versatile regional centre. Maroochydore really gives you what you’d expect plus more.

More Choice. More Service. More Value.

And it’s not just retail.

But don’t forget the joy of coming across that special little one-off shop that simply rocks your world; you know the one we’re talking about — the awesome, eclectic vintage collectables shop, the must-have car collectables shop or the ultra cool collectable record store — all of which happen to be neatly tucked away in the old Big Top Shopping Centre (hiding in plain sight, behind M1 Resort), right across the road from the Sunshine Plaza! Seek them out.

Take your time to savour the unusual, the unique & those hard to find treasures that will bring a smile to your face. Absolute gems. Only a Sunshine Coast local like us would know to mention them. We love their passion for everything so seriously retro!

On the weekends, don’t forget the great range of street markets across the Sunshine Coast where you’ll find eclectic shopping treasures, fresh produce & bags of bargains. The closest market is Fishermans Street Market at Lions Park, cnr of Fishermans Road & Bradman Ave, Maroochydore. You'll find it just opposite the Maroochy Sports Grounds, next to the Maroochy River on the banks of Eudlo Creek, every Sunday morning. Also check out Cotton Tree Market as they close the main street for their Sunday morning market so you can enjoy a lazy morning browsing here, then a few steps away choose a cafe & have brunch or lunch before you head back to the beach!

Another perfect way to spend a day on the Sunshine Coast…
