Terrigal, New South Wales

Terrigal certainly makes for one of the most appealing getaways on the New South Wales Central Coast. The pleasant atmosphere that comes with any town on the coastline is heightened by Terrigal's cosmopolitan vibe, established in its decor and attitude to life's luxuries.

An enticing environment like this makes it most desirable to take an ecotour of its lush surrounds - including Terrigal's greatest natural feature, the Skillion - capped off with a first-class meal.

The beaches - Terrigal, Wamberal and Forresters - are among the most sought-after water spots in the region.
