It has a tennis court.
But not to worry there are a few footy/cricket grounds in the vicinity and few rectangular obscenities.
A warm up jog away.
Arcuri restaurant for energy
And then there's the surf.
Lots of surf and more surf.
There's even a golf course nearby.
But beware playing golf is more dangerous at spreading Covid-19 than a city protest.
Dan taught us that.
Golf is why our footy teams had to leave Victoria.

In which case, Freo would likely collect the 4 points via a walkover, given the match is scheduled to be played on Saturday.
If they travel to Cararra on Sunday they’ll be a bit late for the game.ace wrote: ↑Tue 07 Jul 2020 1:26am NOOSA GETAWAY: SAINTS TO HANG IN THE SUN
St Kilda players will board a bus at around 7.30am on Sunday morning to travel from the club’s Noosa hub to Metricon Stadium.
The two-and-a-half hour drive to the Gold Coast venue — and early alarm for this week’s 12.35pm clash against Fremantle — shapes as a rare drawback from winning the AFL’s hub lottery, with the Saints taking control of the RACV Noosa Resort.
Saints recruit Zak Jones and Dockers captain Nat Fyfe are likely to return from minor hamstring injuries in that clash.
Like all clubs quarantining in Queensland, the Saints are unable to leave the resort for the first 14 days, except for training.
On day 15 the Saints will fly to Adelaide for their Round 7 clash against the Crows and then return to Noosa on July 21.
They will then be permitted to surf, play golf, fish and enjoy the beautiful surrounds of the holiday town.
Hawthorn (Coogee) and Melbourne (Manly) will not have to quarantine after being sent to Sydney on Sunday.
The Saints will train at the nearby Noosa Football Club and the Maroochydore Football Club, which is 35km away.
The RACV Resort had been closed to the public recently because of construction works.
Dietitian Alison Miles jetted to Noosa with the Saints after other staff members in the club’s bubble were unable to attend.
Agree.

How on earth can we play Freo when we haven't completed our 14 day quarantine?
Because Freo are crap and it will be a training run.saintsRrising wrote: ↑Tue 07 Jul 2020 3:31pmAgree.

Many years ago we had a road trip to visit my wife's Aunt. The whole family were piled up in our big old Chevy Suburban. We were driving from Minnesota to Colorado.
3 hrs means they arrive at 10:30 leaving 2 hrs of prep before 12:35 pm start.longtimesaint wrote: ↑Tue 07 Jul 2020 11:58am I am a bit concerned with the journey from Noosa to Carrara by bus before a very important game.
I have done the drive from Noosa to GC and it needs light traffic to do it in 2 1/2 hours - it is normally more like 3 hours.
Have they considered chartering a flight instead as you also have the return bus trip after the game.
took a greyhound once from San Fran to New York. what an ordeal. delayed in salt lake city for 8 hours as they discovered bullets rolling on the floor and we missed our connection whilst they no doubt contacted police and did a background check on us all. no one told us anything until two big burley agents walked into our confused group at the bus station and grabbed a passanger and dragged him away. had a bag full of guns and munitions under his back seat. had talked to him at earlier stops, was a friendly ohio boy returning home, san fran was too dangerous according to him. one bus from then on. by denver we had run out of sanitary wipes in the toilet and they never got replaced. in chicago we had another long delay as they tried to throw off this sweet old guatemalan gent for unlabelled baggage. fellow couldn't understand as he didn't speak english, and my spanish was too poor to properly translate. they were contemptous of him, not speaking english and not knowing the rules. all the passangers lept to his defence and wouldn't let them. next thing armed security came in and arguments flew. poor old lad got tossed out, totally confused. Over 70 hours trip in total. on a stinking bloody greyhound. next time i visited america i hired an rv and drove myself.minneapolis wrote: ↑Wed 08 Jul 2020 4:12amMany years ago we had a road trip to visit my wife's Aunt.
