23 stations across 7 fuel types are included on the Sunshine Coast, QLD. Check the report time and use the map for distance before you drive.

Before you choose a station

Service stations on the Sunshine Coast can change prices during the day, so the city average is a guide rather than a bowser price. The reported diesel average is 249.4 c/L, and the lowest report is 11.7c/L below it. Check the station update time and distance before travelling for the difference.

Choose the fuel type your vehicle uses, compare stations within the distance you are willing to drive and check when each price was reported. Use a station on your normal route unless the price difference covers the extra travel. Brands reporting on the Sunshine Coast include Liberty, Puma, Shell. Compare individual stations because a brand average can hide local differences.
