Caloundra, on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, epitomises the dream of Australia's tropical north. Its name is said to be derived from an Aboriginal word, Callandra, meaning beautiful. This description is no overstatement, and this is where AISA is situated.

From the gleaming white sand of the Caloundra foreshore, washed by the impossibly blue Pacific, teeming with marine life, to the volcanic cores of the Glasshouse Mountains, nature paints a brilliant picture of beauty. Rolling green hills, breathtaking waterfalls, lush rainforest, and the clear Pacific waters... here the beauties of beach and country combine in intriguing symmetry.

Caloundra is a holiday maker's playground with fabulous golf courses, impressive sports centres, gyms and of course, aquatic activities. The green hinterland nearby offers trail riding, bush walks, and the chance to observe Australia's unique wildlife.
