Should I move here?

Coming to Australia on a working holiday visa. Is Noosa a good place to come for work in the bar and restaurant industry? Will be arriving beginning of February. What is the best time to come and are jobs and accommodation easy to find as well?

Noosa is a lovely place to spend your time and is ranked 16th best suburb in the Sunshine Coast. You can see suburb reviews at this link.

Another option is Airlie Beach, further north Queensland and the gateway to the Whitsundays. I visited recently (Oct 2015) and it was very popular with working holiday travellers. Employment options are largely centred around tourism and hospitality roles including chef, waiter, cleaner, boat hand and diving instructor. Additionally, the surrounding area regularly seeks keen workers for the sugar farms.
