Activities & attractions

Pelican Feeding

Pelican Feeding

Pamplona may have its annual Running of the Bulls, but The Entrance has the Daily Feeding of the Pelicans! Rain or shine for 20-odd years it's been the Central Coast's biggest tourist attraction. It's also earned The Entrance the official designation of Pelican Capital of Australia.

Wyrrabalong National Park

Wyrrabalong National Park

Wyrrabalong National Park's beach and littoral forest treks offer you the opportunity to see the area from a natural perspective. On these treks you'll find red gum forests and paper bark fringed wetlands with an array of captivating wildflowers.

Memorial Park

Memorial Park

Memorial Park is one of those places that always has something fun going on - a place where live music, juggling and face painting are a regular occurrence. There's bound to be a live performance at the stage, market garden or at the very least a jumpy castle when you pay a visit.

Beautiful Beaches

Beautiful Beaches

With golden sands (perfect for sandcastles) and clean ocean tides, the beaches here are something you must see (and feel) to believe. Some locals still don't believe how fortunate they are to have a coast as nice as this one. Great fishing and very active surf life saving clubs make this a place for everyone to enjoy a range of activities.

Giant Chess Board
