Communities with colour and character

Aura is known as the City of Colour due to its vibrant design and dynamic atmosphere. The community is designed with a focus on modern architecture and public spaces that feature bold, bright colour schemes.

There are multiple interconnected communities - Baringa, Nirimba and Banya - all of which have their own distinct features, parks and community facilities.

Banya, Aura's third suburb is ideal for young families and first home buyers. It's conveniently located close to a proposed future state primary school and private P-12 school, village centres and early leaning centres.

Parks, reserves and open space

Almost a third of Aura is dedicated to conservation, making it ideal for active living. Features include:

Over two million trees have been planted throughout Aura, contributing to its lush and vibrant environment. When Aura is complete, it will feature 200 kilometres of cycling and walking paths.

A major green space project is Aura Brook, a five stage parkland designed for all ages to enjoy the great outdoors. Aura Brook will include an enchanted garden, dog park, dedicated space for ball games, community centre and pedestrian bridges.

Beautiful beaches on your doorstep

Living in the Aura community means having some of the Sunshine Coast's most stunning beaches right on your doorstep. Just a short drive away, you'll find pristine coastal destinations perfect for swimming, surfing or simply soaking up the sun.

The nearby beaches offer crystal-clear waters and golden sands, providing ideal spots for family outings, beach sports and picnics.

Whether you prefer to hit the waves, go paddling in the still waters of Pumicestone Passage, or head to the safety of Currimundi Lake with the kids, there's something for everyone.
