Noosa Civic is located within the suburb of Noosaville, supporting a population of 9,344 as of the 2021

suburbs such as Tewantin and Noosa Heads. Other surrounding suburbs include Weyba Downs, Doonan
and coastal suburbs such as Castaways Beach and Sunshine Beach.

speciality and department stores located across Noosaville, and in suburbs such as Noosa Heads and
Tewantin (see Figure 2). Accessibility to higher order services and speciality stores is limited, with the
