The Area: The Entrance, NSW
Set between Sydney and Newcastle, the Central Coast is famed for its golden beaches, quaint waterside towns and ample national parkland. Surfers zip along crashing waves, bargain hunters haggle at weekend markets, and locals catch up for coffee in one of many beachfront cafés in the laidback areas of the region.
Stroll down the main street, The Entrance Road, and window shop or people watch to your heart’s content. Nature-loving Groupies could hire a boat and anchor down in the ocean for a spot of fishing; try their hand at surfing; or soak up the sun on the golden sands of the beautiful beaches, which are located right on the resort’s doorstep. Alternatively, wander down to the magnificent Tuggerah Lake and have a go at water-skiing, canoeing, sailing, rowing, or sailboarding.
Wander into town and enjoy the fascinating Heritage Walk. Sign-posted throughout the Town Centre and enlightening visitors on the local history, the leisurely walk takes approximately two hours. The Entrance also boasts a range of quality bike paths, encompassing Tuggerah Lakes and passing many picnic areas, parks, and playgrounds.
