Surf Mural Returns to Spotlight

Sunshine Coast Council

Crafted by renowned local artist Owen Cavanagh, this vibrant piece of art now adorns a new structure on Sunshine Coast Council-owned land in Bli Bli.

The surf mural is visible from the Sunshine Motorway when heading north shortly after the Maroochy River bridge, near the Amateur Radio Station and old toll booth location.

Sunshine Coast Council Division 9 Councillor Maria Suarez said recreating the mural would ensure its legacy continued to inspire and captivate residents and visitors.

"The surf mural has long been a symbol of our coastal lifestyle and surf culture, and I'm thrilled it has been given new life and can be enjoyed once again," Cr Suarez said.

"The original mural had been located on a cane shed wall that had reached the end of its life.

"The new artwork beautifully captures the essence of our beaches and celebrates the vibrant surf culture that is an integral part of our identity here on the Sunshine Coast.

"The spirit of the 'Old Cane Shed Surf Mural' lives on in its new home and is a must-see for anyone traveling through the area."
