SUNSHINE COAST

Pineapples thrive in Queensland’s warm climate and fertile soils, with one of the key growing regions being the beautiful Sunshine Coast, about a 60-minute drive from Brisbane.

Renowned worldwide as Australia’s peak pineapple-growing territory, the region's rolling hills and well-drained soil make it ideal for growing pineapples all year long. From Wamuran to the scenic Glasshouse Mountains, it truly is a unique landscape that shows off the golden fruit at its best. The combination of ample sunshine, consistent rainfall, and a subtropical climate allows growers to produce pineapples with exceptional sweetness and vibrant flavour.

The Sunshine Coast is home to numerous family-run farms, many of which have been cultivating pineapples for generations, contributing to both the local economy and Australia’s horticulture industry. Visitors to the region can enjoy fresh, locally grown pineapples at roadside stalls, farmers' markets, and even farm tours that showcase the dedication and expertise behind every harvest.
