Norah Head and Budgewoi are smaller townships by the water, located just north of The Entrance. Norah Head reveals spectacular lookouts and beaches – an excellent place for a picnic while taking in the stunning views from the headland. Budgewoi captures 360 degree water views being surrounded by Lake Munmorah to the north, Budgewoi Lake to the south and the Pacific Ocean to the east. These northern towns are renowned for their great BBQ and picnic spots as well as lake and beachside holiday parks. Toukley is on a narrow neck of land between Tuggerah and Budgewoi Lakes and is a perfect holiday spot for water lovers with surf and lake beaches and a recreation area.
Belt on your wakeboard and get ready to kick up some spray! Norah Head is a haven of water sports that are great fun for young and old. A brisk walk through the quiet scrub is all that’s between you and the sun, surf and sand. Its prime location gives visitors unfettered access to two beaches. Go for a swim in the sparkling waters of either the Lakes or Soldiers Point beaches in the shadow of the historic Norah Head Lighthouse.
