A resort course at Coolum Beach on the Sunshine Coast, Palmer Coolum sits close enough to the water to catch the onshore sea breezes that regularly ventilate this stretch of coastline. That coastal setting keeps the course largely free of the traffic and industrial influences found in bigger Queensland cities, leaving a subtropical seasonal rhythm as the main driver of air quality: the risk of bushfire smoke drifting in during the drier spring months, occasional cane-burning haze from inland districts, and warm, humid conditions that can support summer ozone formation on the stillest days.
