New South Wales Coast Holiday Specials
| When are you going to travel? |
The New South Wales Coast offers a great range of things to see and do. Stretching from Kingscliff in the north to Eden down south there is something for every kind of traveller. Around the water there is surfing, fishing, swimming and canoeing. On land you have walks and treks though rainforests and national parks; have fish and chips on the beach; tour many historical attractions; and maybe even use a bike, horse, camel or 4WD to see the sights.
The Northern Rivers coastline offers year around access to beaches from the popular new age and laidback lifestyle at Byron Bay, home of the Writers Festival, the university town of Lismore known for Lismore Lantern Parade, to the rock pools at Yamba or Ballina. Drive the rainforest way, skirting the lush Tweed Heads valley, linking 14 world heritage parks, watched over by Mt Warning where the dawn sun first touches mainland Australia. Don’t miss the quaint coastal town of Kingscliff offering many great accommodation options.
Starting at Port Stephens and Port Macquarie and stretching north to Coffs Harbour, the North Coast is dotted with 400 kilometers of stunning beaches for the ideal aussie holiday. Explore its eight coastal and hinterland National Parks, 17 State Forests, 5 lake systems and 11 major rivers, including the best known Myall Lakes National Park offering a variety of water activities from canoeing to windsurfing.
Ranging from Cronulla in the south, Bondi and Manly Beaches in the middle, to Palm Beach in the north, sydney beaches are as varied and exciting as the city itself! Surround yourself with backpackers at a pub at Coogee Beach, enjoy a walk along the coastline, and treat yourself at a bustling café or restaurant found alongside almost every beach.
Follow the inland waters to where it meets the sea and you’ll find the Central Coast – providing opportunities to fish, go prawn trawling, and swim and surf at the many patrolled beaches, including Terrigal Beach and Ocean Beach Umina. Bushwalking, cycling and horse riding are other great activities, as well as the Australian Reptile Park or the daily feeding of the pelicans at The Entrance. For a bit of Australian culture take a walk through Brisbane Waters National Park to see ancient aboriginal sites.
