The sporting opportunities for Pelican Waters residents are endless.

From the smell of freshly mown turf at an early morning tee off on the Greg Norman designed golf course to the exhilaration of riding a wave on one of the near-by beach breaks, there's plenty of scope for an active lifestyle.

Just minutes from the Pumicestone Passage, residents and visitors alike take advantage of this pristine stretch of water, whether it's to plunge in and cool off on a hot day or embrace the thrill of kayaking, kite surfing or sail boarding with Caloundra, the open sea or the Glasshouse Mountains offering stunning backdrops.

The shallow waters and mangroves lining Golden Beach and Bribie Island are teeming with fish, crabs and prawns and recreational anglers regularly reap the rewards.

From Golden Beach to Kawana Beach, Caloundra City boasts 10 of Queensland's most popular patrolled beaches, while those who prefer a swimming experience minus the sand and waves can take advantage of the aqua waters in a number of public swimming pools.

The Coastal Pathway, which will eventually stretch from Bells Creek to Buddina, already offers an extensive network of walking and cycling tracks with stunning vistas guaranteed to make daily exercise an activity to be anticipated.

And there's no shortage of sports for those with a penchant for team or club activities. From bowls to basketball, tennis to tenpin, all codes of football, cricket, netball and volleyball a healthy, active lifestyle beckons all those that reside at Pelican Waters.
