The Central Coast, just one hours drive north of Sydney offers an abundance of attractions and activities for people needing a well earned break, whether it’s for a day, a weekend or a week.

From swimming to shopping, golf to gardens, hiking to horse riding, the Central Coast can provide a range of memorable experiences. Explore the spectacular beaches, countless national parks, forests and reserves or encounter wildlife at close range at one of the animal parks.

The Central Coast supplies the full spectrum of shopping experiences from the boutiques of Terrigal and Avoca to the many regular seaside markets and arts & craft fairs, and the furniture & antique shopping at The Entrance. The two major shopping and entertainment malls at Erina Fair and Westfield Tuggerah are a consumer’s dream.

To relax and unwind visit the historic Avoca Beach movie theatre, treat yourself to a day spa or sample some local award winning fruit wines.
