Central Coast Attractions

Hire a houseboat and leave the rest of the world behind. The Central Coast offers a holiday with endless possibilities - whether you want to go abseiling, horse riding, surfing, scuba diving or just relax with a good book. Even if you only stay for the weekend, you won't be in a hurry to leave.

Gosfor with its town centre's urbane enticements - including the vibrant Ettalong Markets - also features the long-standing Old Sydney Town, that has been a fun source of education on Australian colonial life, making for a great family day.

In Terrigal take the ecotour of its lush surrounds - including Terrigal's greatest natural feature, Skillion - and finish it off with a first-class meal. Then take a dip at Terrigal or Avoca beach.

Watch the pelican feeding at The Entrance, go bushwalking in Bouddi National Park or go sailboarding and kayaking on Tuggerah Lake. Between moths of June and November watch for whales.

At Central Coast you will enjoy the laid-back atmosphere, whether you are swimming, surfing, fishing, sailing or simply relaxing
