House sit DICKY BEACH

Mornings in Dicky Beach often begin with the sound of distant surf. Your charge, a kelpie perhaps, will likely know the routine: a brisk walk along the coastal pathway, heading north towards Moffat Beach. This path is well-maintained, ideal for a morning stretch before the day warms. After their walk, a quick stop at one of the Beerburrum Street cafes for a takeaway coffee becomes a natural habit. The pace here is unhurried. You’ll find errands are often integrated with a stroll; local essentials like the bakery or a small grocery are generally walkable from most residential streets. Afternoons might involve supervising a cat napping in a sunbeam or simply enjoying the quiet of the neighbourhood. The wreck of the SS Dicky, visible at low tide, offers a distinctive landmark during beach walks. Evenings encourage quiet reflection. Consider another walk with your companion along the quieter stretch of Dicky Beach as the sun dips, perhaps collecting a few shells. For anything beyond the immediate village, local buses connect effectively to Caloundra for larger supermarkets or further dining options, though many prefer the local eateries. Settling into the rhythm of this specific corner of the Sunshine Coast feels less like visiting and more like simply living here, with daily routines often dictated by the tide and local pet needs.
