History

[edit]

The town's name originated from the indigenous term "gulum" or "kulum," meaning "blunt" or "headless," in reference to Mount Coolum's shape.[13]

The Coolum district encompasses the traditional land of the 'Inabara' or 'Yinneburra' clan from the Undanbi tribe, which was a subset of the larger group known as Kabi Kabi (or Gubbi Gubbi).[13]

Coolum Provisional School opened on 2 April 1917. In 1930, it became Coolum State School.[14]

In December 1923, land in the Mt Coolum Beach Estate second section went to auction, following the successful sale of portions in the first section, and one month after the official opening of the Moreton Central Sugar Mill Cane Tramway extension to Coolum. All lots were described as having an uninterrupted view of the Pacific Ocean.[15][16]

In 1931, the Coolum Beach branch of the Queensland Country Women's Association were donated a block of land and purchased the adjacent block at 7–9 Coolum Terrace (26°31′57″S 153°05′30″E / 26.5326°S 153.0917°E / -26.5326; 153.0917 (CWA Hall (former))). In 1965, a former school building was moved onto the block which was replaced with a new building in 1990. In 2013, the CWA decided that the hall was under-utilised and that its increasing property value should be realised to support other projects.[17][18] The property was sold into private ownership on 21 September 2013 for $660,000.[19][20]

Holy Spirit Anglican Church was dedicated on 14 November 1970. It was consecrated by Archbishop Felix Arnott on 5 November 1977.[21]

Coolum State High School opened on 29 January 1985.[14]

The Coolum Library opened in 1989 with a major refurbishment in 1997.[22]

In 2002, Coolum hosted the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting, replacing the 2001 meeting that was postponed and moved from Brisbane in the wake of the September 11 attacks.[23][24]

Along with a number of other regional Australian newspapers owned by NewsCorp, the Coolum News newspaper ceased publication in June 2020.[25]

View on Grokipedia
from Grokipedia
Coolum Beach is a coastal suburb in the of , , encompassing a long expanse of sandy shoreline fringed by parks and the . As of the , the suburb had a population of 9,152 residents. The area is defined by its natural features, including the prominent Mount Coolum, a 208-metre-high dome-shaped formed approximately 26 million years ago, now protected as a valued for its rare plant species, wildflowers, and panoramic coastal views. Mount Coolum holds cultural significance for the Traditional Owners, the Kabi Kabi people, who associate it with local Dreamtime stories and have requested visitors refrain from climbing its summit out of respect. Coolum Beach serves as a hub for , drawing visitors for , beach walks, and family-oriented amenities like the Coolum Surf Club, while its history traces to European land selections in the 1870s followed by settlement for timber, farming, and later coastal development.

Geography and Environment

Location and Physical Features

Coolum Beach lies in the of , , approximately 120 km north of central along the coastline. Its central coordinates are roughly 26°32′S 153°04′E, positioning it within a subtropical coastal zone characterized by low-lying terrain transitioning inland to subtle elevations. The locality is bordered eastward by the Coral Sea, with direct exposure to ocean swells and tides shaping its eastern boundary, while westward limits abut hinterland rises including the dominant Mount Coolum formation. Mount Coolum, a key physical landmark, elevates abruptly to 208 meters above as a volcanic dome remnant, primarily composed of rhyolite from approximately 26 million years ago, contrasting the flat below. This peak anchors Mount Coolum National Park, located about 6 km south of the main Coolum Beach township, encompassing the dome and surrounding slopes with steep gradients exceeding 200 meters over short horizontal distances. The park's boundaries protect this monadnock-like feature, which influences local microtopography through shadow effects and runoff patterns. Coastal topography includes sandy beaches backed by foredunes, with headlands such as Point Arkwright providing rocky promontories that interrupt the shoreline and foster pocket bays. These dunes, formed from aeolian sands, exhibit elevations up to 10-20 meters in places, stabilizing the barrier system against erosion while hosting specialized vegetation. Predominant soils along the littoral comprise marine alluvial sands and podzolic profiles derived from weathered coastal sediments, as identified in regional surveys, supporting a narrow strip of hind dune complexes. The overall relief features minimal inland gradients beyond the mountain, with the averaging under 5 meters , punctuated by erosion-resistant outcrops and seasonal stream incisions that define the area's geomorphic framework.

Climate and Weather Patterns

Coolum Beach features a (Köppen Cfa), with warm to hot summers, mild winters, and significant rainfall concentrated in the warmer months. Annual mean maximum temperatures average 25.5°C, with minimums at 16.0°C, based on records from the nearby station (approximately 10 km south). Year-round highs typically range from 25°C to 29°C, supporting consistent outdoor activities, though often exceeds 70% during peak warmth. Summer ( to ) sees mean maximums of 28.4–29.1°C and minimums of 20.0–21.4°C, with occasional peaks exceeding 35°C during heatwaves. Winters ( to ) are milder, with mean maximums of 21.1–22.3°C and minimums of 9.7–11.3°C, rarely dropping below 5°C. Rainfall totals approximately 1,502 mm annually, predominantly in the from to , where monthly averages range from 155 mm in to 218 mm in ; drier conditions prevail in winter, with and averaging 70–71 mm. This pattern results from the region's exposure to easterly and occasional tropical moisture incursions. Weather variability includes periodic cyclones and storms during the , with influences from El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycles: La Niña phases typically enhance rainfall, while El Niño periods bring drier conditions. data indicate a warming trend in the southeast region, with average temperatures rising by about 1°C since the early , including increased frequency of days above 35°C since the , though long-term rainfall totals have shown stability amid interannual fluctuations.

Environmental Challenges and Conservation

![Mount Coolum, a focal point for conservation efforts in the region]float-right Coastal erosion at Coolum Beach arises primarily from wave action during storms and alterations to natural sediment dynamics due to urban development, such as infrastructure that interrupts longshore transport. Queensland government assessments identify parts of the Sunshine Coast, including Coolum, as erosion-prone, with extreme wave heights reaching 5.31 meters during 1% annual exceedance probability events. However, net longshore sediment transport rates of approximately 17,900 cubic meters per year indicate potential for localized accretion rather than overall loss in recent decades, supported by monitoring data and interventions like sand nourishment trialed nearby. The Sunshine Coast Council's Shoreline Erosion Management Plan (2025-2035) addresses these risks through adaptive strategies, prioritizing soft engineering like dune vegetation over hard structures to maintain beach stability. Residential and tourism development intensified since the 2010s has contributed to along Coolum's coastal zones, reducing connectivity for species reliant on heathlands and wetlands amid expanding built environments. This pressure is mitigated by protections in Mount Coolum National Park, covering 363 hectares and managed for conservation of vulnerable taxa such as the eastern ground parrot and wallum sedgefrog through targeted fire regimes and pest control programs. The park's 2019 management plan emphasizes restoration of key habitats, including montane heath and wetlands, as environmental offsets countering regional development impacts like nearby airport expansion. Community-led efforts by groups like Coolum Coast Care, established in 2000, further support flora and fauna preservation via volunteer rehabilitation on private and public lands. Indigenous sacred sites, including caves, stone arrangements, and burial grounds within Mount Coolum National Park, face threats from natural weathering and limited visitor impacts, with the entire area recognized as a Significant Aboriginal Area for the Kabi Kabi people. Nearby rock art, such as hand prints at Peregian Beach overhangs, exemplifies regional cultural heritage vulnerable to environmental degradation. Historical land use conflicts in the 19th century, including documented massacres in Coolum swamp lands and a 1852 incident involving five Indigenous individuals, stemmed from frontier expansion by settlers displacing local clans like the Yinneburra. Contemporary conservation prioritizes empirical outcomes, such as cultural site monitoring and educational signage in the national park, to safeguard these elements without unsubstantiated emphasis on past narratives.

History

Indigenous Peoples and Pre-Colonial Period

The Coolum Beach area formed part of the traditional territory of the Inabara (also spelled Yinneburra) clan of the Undanbi tribe, which belonged to the larger Gubbi Gubbi (alternatively Kabi Kabi) nation of southeast . These groups maintained custodianship over coastal and landscapes, with clan boundaries delineating resource access amid a involving ties and occasional inter-group alliances or rivalries over territory and food surpluses. Archaeological evidence from the , including sites near Mount Coolum—a significant landmark in Kabi Kabi lore—documents prolonged Aboriginal occupation through stone tools, occupation scatters, and cultural associations predating European arrival. Shell middens along nearby coastal and riverine zones, such as the Maroochy River mouth approximately 15 kilometers south, contain layered deposits of shellfish remains (predominantly pipi and rocky platform species), fish bones, and associated artifacts, indicating systematic exploitation of estuarine and marine resources over at least several thousand years. These middens reflect adaptive strategies to tidal and seasonal variability, with discard patterns suggesting opportunistic yet repeated rather than overexploitation, as population densities remained low and tied to ecological . The Gubbi Gubbi supplemented coastal foraging with inland excursions for periodic bunya nut () harvests, joining multi-tribal gatherings in areas like the Blackall Range and Baroon Pocket, where mast years every few years yielded abundant edible nuts traded and consumed in feasts that reinforced social networks. Hunting practices targeted , possums, and birds using spears and drives, while freshwater creeks supported eel and traps; such methods, inferred from ethnographic parallels and site distributions, promoted patch regeneration in forests and heaths through mosaic burning, countering fuel buildup and facilitating access to tubers and small game amid fluctuating rainfall. Inter-clan tensions occasionally arose over prime grounds or feast sites, as recorded in oral traditions, underscoring resource competition in a landscape prone to droughts and cyclones.

European Exploration and Settlement

European surveyors under jurisdiction first documented the name "Coolum" in 1842, derived from the Kabi Kabi Aboriginal term gulum or kulum, describing the truncated or "headless" profile of Mount Coolum. That year, Governor George Gipps issued a designating the lands between the Mary and Maroochy Rivers—including Coolum—as a reserve to protect Indigenous bunya nut gatherings, explicitly prohibiting European pastoral or other settlement to avert conflicts over these periodic cultural events. Queensland's separation from in 1859 rescinded such restrictions, enabling timber felling—primarily red cedar—and the granting of pastoral leases in surrounding districts, though Coolum itself saw limited immediate uptake due to its remoteness and persistent Indigenous resistance. These expansions fueled frontier clashes rooted in incompatible systems, exemplified by the 1852 Coolum , where settlers killed local Aboriginal people at a swamp site, triggering reprisals against European holdings and dispersals by Native Police forces. The first pastoral in Coolum was selected in 1871 by Grainger Ward, covering 255 hectares stocked with over 300 cattle and featuring basic huts. By 1881, Mark Blasdall took up a 252-hectare , planting the area's initial crop alongside timber operations, laying groundwork for small-scale farming amid ongoing sporadic violence from rival claims. These holdings represented the nascent European foothold, with permanent family-based settlement emerging toward the late through incremental selections and rudimentary .

20th-Century Development and Urbanization

In the early , Coolum Beach emerged as a modest , attracting visitors through private land subdivisions that promoted basic amenities such as bathing sheds and golf links to appeal to holidaymakers from nearby areas. These developments, driven by individual entrepreneurs rather than government initiatives, established the area as a seasonal destination with rudimentary , including early surf bathing facilities supported by the formation of the Coolum Beach Surf Life Saving Club in 1919. The permanent population remained small, hovering around 200 residents until the , sustained by and limited without significant urban expansion. Post-World War II interstate migration to Queensland's coastal regions, fueled by demand for and lifestyle appeal, catalyzed rapid in Coolum Beach from the onward. Private developers, such as those behind Suncoast Developments acquiring between Coolum and Mudjimba in the early , initiated subdivisions that transformed farmland into residential lots, drawing families and retirees. This era saw the proliferation of holiday shacks and basic homes, with real estate sales accelerating under figures like in the late , marking a shift from rural outpost to burgeoning . Infrastructure milestones, including expanded road access and resistance to on dunes, preserved beachfront appeal while enabling denser settlement. The 1970s and 1980s witnessed a tourism-driven boom, with private investments in hospitality—such as hotels emerging from 1953 and peaking with the $134 million Regency resort and in 1988—elevating Coolum's profile among affluent visitors. Upgrades to the surf club, including a new brick clubhouse in on the , supported growing beach patronage and community events, while esplanade enhancements improved pedestrian access to the shoreline. These changes, propelled by investor activity and minimal regulatory barriers to coastal development, tripled the local population from the 1990s onward through sustained residential subdivisions, laying the foundation for Coolum Beach's transition to a modern urban enclave integrated into the Sunshine Coast's growth corridor.

Demographics and Society

In the , the suburb of Coolum Beach had a of 9,152 residents. This figure reflects consistent expansion within the , with the rising from 8,497 in the 2016 —a 7.7% increase over five years, or roughly 1.5% annually. Prior to that, the 2011 recorded approximately 7,905 residents, indicating a similar 7.5% growth rate in the preceding quinquennium driven primarily by net interstate migration inflows to Queensland's coastal areas. Population density stood at about 335 persons per in , based on the suburb's land area of 27.3 km². The age structure skewed older, with a age of 45 years—higher than Queensland's statewide of 38—consistent with patterns of retirees and empty-nesters relocating to coastal locales. Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people represented 2.0% of the , aligning closely with the Sunshine Coast regional average of 2.4%.

Current estimates for the expanded Coolum Beach-Mount Coolum area (encompassing adjacent s) reached 17,100 residents as of June 2024, underscoring ongoing trends that position the core to surpass 10,000 by 2030 amid sustained regional migration.

Socioeconomic Characteristics

Coolum Beach exhibits a weekly of $1,600, slightly below the state average of $1,675, with incomes supported by a mix of professional (22.1% of employed persons) and occupations (13.6%). The area's labour force participation rate stands at 60.2%, marginally lower than the state's 61.6%, while the rate is 4.2%, better than Queensland's 5.4%; however, experiences seasonal variations linked to coastal visitation patterns, which amplify demand for temporary roles during peak periods. Home ownership is prevalent, with 66.9% of dwellings owned outright (33.5%) or with a (33.4%), exceeding the state rental proportion of 33.1% through lower renting at 28.7%; median monthly repayments reach $2,000, reflecting elevated coastal values that median house prices near $1.3 million exacerbate. This tenure stability contrasts with affordability pressures, where high demand from external buyers drives a divide between established residents and those seeking entry-level , compounded by limited supply in desirable beachfront zones. Social cohesion is evident in strong community involvement, particularly volunteerism through the Coolum Beach Surf Life Saving Club, which conducts patrols on weekends and holidays from to April, relying on local dedication to maintain beach safety amid fluctuating tourist volumes. Such metrics underscore a resilient socioeconomic fabric, where lower and ownership rates buffer against external economic pressures, though seasonal and housing dynamics introduce variability.

Cultural Diversity and Community Life

Coolum Beach displays a relatively homogeneous cultural profile, with the indicating that the top reported ancestries among residents were (46.6%), Australian (35.6%), Irish (15.0%), Scottish (13.7%), and German (6.6%), reflecting multi-response reporting where individuals may select multiple heritages. This composition underscores a predominance of heritage, comprising the substantial majority of the population. Country of birth data further highlights limited , with 77.4% of residents born in , followed by (5.1%) and (3.8%); only 18.6% were born overseas in the broader Coolum Beach-Mount Coolum area. is spoken at home by 90.4% of the population, with non- languages such as Spanish (0.6%) and German (0.5%) representing minor fractions. Aboriginal and Islander peoples constitute 2.1% of residents. In contrast to urban centers like , where overseas-born populations exceed 30%, Coolum Beach's diversity remains subdued, aligning with broader Sunshine Coast patterns of Anglo-Australian dominance. Community life in Coolum Beach emphasizes local cohesion and traditions, bolstered by recurring events that integrate residents. The monthly Salty Saturdays gathering, held on the second Saturday, functions as a market and mini-music in a public park, drawing locals and visitors to celebrate regional culture through live performances, stalls, and social interaction without entry fees. Such initiatives foster interpersonal ties in a setting where rapid —driven partly by retirees seeking coastal lifestyles—introduces dynamism while placing measurable pressure on like centers. Empirical indicators of social stability include low rates; for instance, break-and-enter offenses in 2022-2024 were 59.5% below the average, and overall decreased by 10.24% from 2023 to 2024, with zero recorded homicides. These statistics, derived from data, suggest effective self-regulation amid demographic expansion.

Economy

Tourism and Hospitality Sector

Coolum Beach serves as a key node in the Sunshine Coast's , drawing visitors primarily for its coastal , with beaches and water-based activities forming the core appeal. As part of the broader region that recorded 4.2 million visitors in the year to September 2023—including a record 2.5 million holidaymakers—the locality benefits from substantial spillover, particularly through day trips and short stays centered on and relaxation. These inflows generate ancillary revenue via private ventures, underscoring 's status as the dominant economic pillar without reliance on extensive public subsidies. The area's patrolled beaches, equipped with boardwalks for pedestrian access, support safe and , attracting families and enthusiasts year-round, while Mount Coolum offers trails that integrate natural elevation with ocean views. Peak summer periods amplify visitor density, effectively multiplying the resident of approximately 9,000 by factors sufficient to strain local capacity, driven by domestic interstate arrivals that rose 14.3% year-over-year in recent . Hospitality operators, including hotels and cafes, capitalize on this by providing accommodation and dining, sustaining seasonal in a sector where private initiative prevails over government-led initiatives. Post-COVID recovery has bolstered the sector, with Sunshine Coast overnight visitor expenditure reaching $4.2 billion in the same period—up 11.8% year-over-year and 53.7% above levels—reflecting robust domestic demand rebound. Overseas spending in the region climbed 13.7% to $413.4 million in 2024-25, signaling sustained international interest that indirectly lifts Coolum's profile through regional marketing. This growth, tracked via Research Australia methodologies, highlights resilience in private-led , employing thousands regionally in roles from to food service, though exact local job figures remain aggregated within Sunshine Coast totals of over 10,000 workers as of 2021.

Real Estate and Construction Boom

The median house price in Coolum Beach reached approximately $1.35 million in 2025, reflecting sustained demand for coastal properties despite a slight quarterly dip of around 1-3% amid broader market cooling. This figure positions Coolum Beach among the higher-end suburbs on the Sunshine Coast, where regional house prices have risen by an average of 13.2% annually over the five years to June 2025, outpacing state trends. Since 2020, property values in Coolum Beach and the surrounding Sunshine Coast have appreciated by roughly 50-80%, driven by limited housing stock and heightened buyer interest in lifestyle-oriented locales. Low inventory has exacerbated upward pressure, with sales volumes remaining robust—over 160 house transactions recorded in the past year—while annual compound growth for houses hovered near zero in recent quarters due to affordability constraints. This boom correlates with post-2020 interstate and inter-regional migration, particularly from capital cities, where the Sunshine Coast captured about 9% of Australia's regional inflows, fueled by enabling relocations for sea-change lifestyles. Construction activity has intensified to address supply shortages, with the approving over 3,000 residential dwellings annually in recent years, including contributions from Coolum Beach's zoning allowances for and greenfield developments since the 2010s. Approximately 1,000 new dwellings in Coolum Beach vicinity received approvals between 2020 and 2025, supporting density increases without evidence of disproportionate in council-monitored audits, as planning schemes balanced growth with coastal protections. This expansion has empirically boosted rates revenue, funding upgrades like roads and utilities to accommodate population influxes. Claims of overdevelopment in Coolum Beach often cite visual and density concerns from residents, but data indicate managed growth: zoning expansions have facilitated orderly supply responses to demand, with no audited spikes in key environmental metrics such as or loss proportional to built area. The resultant fiscal gains have enhanced service delivery, underscoring causal links between migration-driven booms and tangible benefits, though ongoing low supply risks further price escalation absent accelerated approvals.

Employment Patterns and Local Businesses

In Coolum Beach, the recorded 4,602 individuals aged 15 years and over in the labour force, representing 60.2% of the in that age group, with an rate of 4.2%. Among the employed, 48.8% worked full-time and 36.8% part-time, reflecting a prevalence of flexible hours suited to the area's seasonal fluctuations, where 47.6% of workers logged fewer than 35 hours per week (excluding those away from work). The dominant industries were service-oriented, with top sectors including hospitals (4.2%), cafes and restaurants (3.5%), (2.9%), aged care residential services (2.9%), and other social assistance (2.8%), underscoring a composition heavily tilted toward accommodation, services, , and —collectively comprising a substantial portion of local amid the coastal economy's reliance on visitor-driven demand. Self-employment bolsters resilience in Coolum Beach, with Sunshine Coast regional data indicating 18.8% of workers as owner-managers (10.0% unincorporated and 8.8% incorporated enterprises), exceeding typical employee-dominated structures and providing a buffer against seasonal downturns through entrepreneurial adaptability. This pattern aligns with post-2000s growth in small-scale ventures, as influx and expansion since the early have spurred local initiative in response to booms and visitor services, maintaining low despite economic variability. The small business ecosystem features niche operators like surf shops (e.g., Coolum, Freetime Surf, and Coolum Boardroom), agencies capitalizing on coastal property demand, and eco-tour providers offering guided nature experiences around Mount Coolum, which collectively sustain retail and service jobs while fostering community-embedded entrepreneurship over large corporate presence. These firms, often family-run or sole proprietorships, contribute to a diversified local economy resilient to broader retail shifts.

Infrastructure and Governance

Local Administration and Planning

Coolum Beach is administered as part of the by the Sunshine Coast Council, formed on 15 March 2008 via the amalgamation of Caloundra City Council, Maroochy Shire Council, and Noosa Shire Council pursuant to reforms aimed at regional efficiency. Noosa Shire de-amalgamated on 1 November 2013 after a local demonstrated strong community preference for separation, reducing the council's scope while preserving unified governance for the remaining areas. The council features an elected mayor—currently Rosanna Natoli—and ten divisional councillors elected every four years, with Coolum Beach situated in Division 8, represented by Councillor Taylor Bunnag since 2020. This structure supports localized representation alongside region-wide decision-making on budgeting, bylaws, and infrastructure priorities. Planning and development in Coolum Beach are governed by the Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme 2014, which employs zoned codes to integrate residential expansion with viability, designating areas for low- and near coastal zones while permitting tourist accommodation in compatible precincts to sustain economic contributions from visitors. A draft replacement scheme, proposed in 2025, prioritizes housing supply by mandating 60% of new dwellings in urban locations like Coolum-Peregian to curb sprawl, accompanied by incentives including 50% charge offsets for qualifying multi-unit projects that align with targets. These measures reflect a policy emphasis on developer facilitation over stringent barriers, evidenced by annual increases of 2.6% to over 374,000 residents region-wide, bolstering rates-based that constitutes the primary for enforcement and growth-related services. Community pushback against overdevelopment in vulnerable sites, such as flood-prone Coolum West, has prompted site-specific assessments to mitigate risks without blanket prohibitions.

Transportation and Accessibility

Coolum Beach is connected to the broader road network primarily via David Low Way, a coastal that links to the (M1) approximately 10 kilometers inland, facilitating access to about 100 kilometers south. The suburb has no local railway station, with residents dependent on bus connections to regional hubs like Maroochydore for train services to . Public transport is provided by Translink, with key routes including 620, which operates between Coolum Beach and Maroochydore, and , extending to Maroochydore Station for rail interchanges; these services run frequently during peak hours but taper off in evenings and weekends. Private vehicle use predominates, reflecting the Sunshine Coast's high car ownership rates—second highest in Australia—where 41.4% of households own one car, 33.2% own two, and 13.6% own three or more, underscoring limited alternatives in this low-density coastal area. Average commute times stand at around 25 minutes, with congestion notably lower than in Brisbane, where drivers lose over 80 hours annually to traffic, due to Coolum's suburban layout and proximity to employment centers like Maroochydore. Cycling infrastructure includes shared paths along David Low Way and coastal trails, promoting short-distance mobility, though reports highlight maintenance frustrations and conflicts with pedestrians or encroaching vehicles. Parking demand exceeds supply during tourist peaks, leading to overflow onto verges and calls from local council strategies for enhanced bus services, walking promotion, and to alleviate pressure without expanding lots. features, such as an all-abilities beach ramp installed in 2025, improve equitable access for those with mobility challenges, though broader infrastructure upgrades are advocated amid .

Utilities and Public Services

Unitywater supplies water and manages services for Coolum Beach as part of its coverage across the . Electricity distribution is handled by Energex, the primary network operator for south-east , including coastal areas prone to weather-related disruptions such as storms and cyclones. These providers maintain infrastructure designed for resilience against coastal hazards, though outages can occur during severe events like the 2022 floods. Waste management falls under Sunshine Coast Council, which operates weekly general waste collections, fortnightly , and services for residents and businesses. systems have seen targeted upgrades following events in the 2010s and 2022, including pit replacements on Grandview Drive in Coolum Beach completed in 2023 and cliff stabilization at First Bay to mitigate landslip risks from heavy rainfall. Emergency services include the Coolum Fire and Rescue Station for fire suppression and hazard response, supported by the local group for flood and storm assistance. provides response, often coordinating with local stations for rapid deployment. The Coolum Beach Surf Life Saving Club, with over 250 patrolling members, conducts beach rescues and preventative actions, recording 10 successful rescues in the 2023-2024 season amid thousands of patrol hours.
