Water skiing and wakeboarding is allowed on marked sections of Noosa River below Tewantin. At peak times the first area just beyond the harbour is very busy and best avoided.

An excellent alternative is to visit Ski ‘N’ Surf Cable Water-ski Park (07 5448 7555) a 50 acre lake on David Low Way, Bli Bli where you use a fixed cable and so excellent for beginners. Wide-a-Wake (07 5474 2445) on Thomas Street is a great shop to buy equipment and to discuss wakeboarding in Noosa.
Wind and kite surfing is possible on Lake Cootharaba, and also kite surfing takes place around the sands at Noosa Bar and on Laguna Bay.
