Noosa is leading the charge to be Australia’s first Plastic Free community.
Places where people want to visit and live and that are sustainable don’t happen by chance - they are a product of visionary thinking and smart planning, and this community program highlights Noosa’s commitment to reducing single-use plastic. Plastic Free Noosa aims to help local businesses, residents and visitors to Noosa easily eliminate single-use plastics from their everyday life.
Plastic Free Noosa is an initiative of Tourism Noosa, proudly supported by Noosa Council.

As a first-time Waste Warrior volunteer, the abundance of positivity and knowledge at the Noosa Festival of Surfing gave me a strong sense of hope and community. It sounds cliche, I know, but I’m sure those who have also worked or volunteered hands on with environmental conservation and sustainability will know the feeling.
These are businesses in Noosa who have significantly reduced their plastic footprint.
We set high expectations and don't give Champion status away lightly, so this is a real achievement and we encourage you to support these businesses to let them know that you appreciate the steps they have taken to protect our environment.
Ready to go plastic free? Plastic Free Noosa helps to protect the environment by empowering the Noosa community in eliminating single-use plastics through direct engagement, recognition and facilitating circular economies.
