The Central Coast, as the name suggests provides a coastal and country holiday experience. It is the only place in the world where 5 separate waterways meet. The region has an enviable mix of bays, inlets, pristine beaches and lakes. It is the second largest city in Newcastle and offers endless possibilities of adventure and relaxation. Gosford, the central business hub of the Central Coast, houses Australian Reptile Park which is one of the best wildlife parks in Australia. There are picturesque villages along the coastline and many beaches and bays like Pearl Beach, Ettalong Beach, Hardys Bay, Avoca Beach, Terrigal, Bateau Bay and Toowoon Bay. The Central Coast is just an hour's drive from Sydney's Harbour Bridge. To get around comfortably, it is best to have your own mode of transportation.
