A little piece of Kawana history 💛🙌
I absolutely love coming across treasures like this. A long term local pulled this original out when I went to appraise her property. Love proud coasties!!!
This old advertisement from 1960 shows the early vision for the Kawana corridor — when so much of what we know and love today was still just an idea on paper.
It’s incredible to look at the waterways, beaches and neighbourhoods being imagined all those years ago and think about the generations of families who have since built their lives here.
More than 65 years later, Kawana has certainly changed, but that connection to the water, our beautiful coastline and the relaxed way of life still feels very much at the heart of this special part of the Sunshine Coast.
I have been on the Coast for 47 years and there’s something lovely about looking back at where it all began. 🤍
Who remembers Kawana in the early days? I’d love to hear your memories — or how long you’ve called this beautiful part of the Coast home.
