In 1962 Joe Whiting took over ownership when he swapped his sugar-cane farm in Maroochydore for the hotel. It became known colloquially as Joe’s Waterhole and was officially renamed in 1987. joeswaterhole.com/history From the early 1850s, almost all the area in the vicinity of the Eumundi district was part of three cattle runs - Canando, Yandina and North Kenilworth.

Mt Ninderry

There is a Dreamtime legend which tells of Coolum, a young warrior, who loved a beautiful aboriginal girl named Maroochy. Another warrior named Ninderry abducted Maroochy. Coolum freed Maroochy and they fled together back to their tribes on the coast. The enraged Ninderry knocked off Coolum’s head which became Mudjimba Island and Coolum’s body became Mt Coolum. The Spirit God punished Ninderry by turning him into stone and he became Ninderry Crest. Maroochy's tears are said to have flowed down creating the Maroochy River. coolumbusinessandtourism.com.au/explore/mount-coolum/legend/ View from the Noosa Hinterland, Queensland at Midday TSC Middle of the day 2/365
