Discover Kin Kin, on the Noosa Country Drive.
Kin Kin packs a lot into its small size! The pretty rolling hills and green valleys are home to farms that provide fresh seasonal produce to Noosa’s restaurants, and it's also the home of Noosa’s first commercial coffee grower.
You’ll find a thriving, small-town community town, peppered with world-class restaurants and cafes, eclectic gift stores, great coffee, and local farmers and producers leading the way in sustainable farming.
Take a country drive to visit the friendly and recently revamped Kin Kin Hotel, and browse the homely Kin Kin Depot for retro country treasures. Discover locally-grown beans at Noosa Black Coffee and gourmet farm-grown mushrooms at nearby Eastwell Farms. Step out on the Noosa Trail Network, a series of tracks and trails over mixed terrain for walkers and horse and mountain bike riders. The Kin Kin Creation Markets are on the first Sunday of each month, and the newly-established Kin Kin Art Fair takes place on various weekends throughout the year.
The town is much loved for its casual charm, passionate local artists, health therapists, foodies and hobby farmers.
The word Kin Kin comes from the indigenous word kauin kauin and refers to a species of black ant that is prevalent in the area. Keep your eyes out for the giant black ant statue in town!
Stop by the newly updated Kin Kin Hotel, which has undergone recent renovation works to restore the original pub and champion the goodness of locally available eat and drink experiences, for drinks, lunch, dinner and some good old country hospitality. (Thursday - Sunday 11am - 9pm, Sunday 11am - 5pm).
If you are chasing the ultimate in eco-luxury (and the most epic outdoor bath experience in the region), discover hinterland luxury at Mayan Luxe Villas. It's built from rammed earth for its sustainability properties and contemporary look and feel.
A sea of homely delights awaits behind the whimsical exterior of the petite weatherboard cottage that houses the treasure trove that is Kin Kin Depot. Set on the side of the sloping main street, locally-made candles and potions vie for position with delicate jewels and country-styled homewares in this eclectic store that captures the vibrant hinterland style that is unique to Kin Kin.
Hinterland tranquility surrounded by green rolling hills, artisan outlets, eateries, farm gates and more.
