about Sunshine Social

Plastic Free Champions Plastic Free Members Sunshine Beach Cafes

Born from a passion for the community and a love of coffee Sunshine Social is a hub for those who take their coffee seriously and have a love for the ocean and surrounds at the iconic Sunshine Beach.

We care a great deal about where our coffee comes from, that it's the best quality and that farmers and producers are supported in the supply chain.

We partner with coffee importers who are empowering smallholder farmers to improve their socioeconomic livelihoods and to grow more climate-resilient coffee in the future.

With a focus on a circular economy and reducing our carbon footprint, we have diverted 10 tons of coffee grinds from landfill in the last 12 months through donating grinds to local community gardens.

We are partnering with Simply Cups who collect our customers take-away coffee cups on site and convert these into sustainable upcycled products including sustainable building materials.

We partner with Pottery for the Planet and upcycle their defect cups by offering a ‘mug library’ for our customers reducing single use cups, and Pottery for the Planet waste.
