Sightseeing

Just a short scenic coastal drive south, is the welcoming town of Laurieton. A small town nestled close to the water with a variety of shops and cafes, great waterways, close beaches and excellent opportunities for walks, picnics and sightseeing. Well known in the area is The Plaza theatre, built in the 1950's and still has the old world charm of statues and velvet seats and an additional smaller Deluxe Cine Lounge for a more intimate theatre experience. This theatre has a fabulous history, part of which includes one of the earlier projector operators to be Baz Luhrmann and is said to be the place that sparked a career in film for Baz.

You are just one street back from Lighthouse Beach that runs for miles between Port Macquarie Centre and Lake Cathie. Golden sands and great for families, it is one of our most popular Surf Beaches for Intermediate and above riders. You can enjoy safe swimming between the flags, long walks along the beach both North and south. There is also Beach Fishing & 4WD access at the Southern end. This beach is patrolled over summer and there is also a Kiosk and Surf Club. It's really worth the walk up to the Taking Point Lighthouse built in 1879, which is part of o long Coastal Walk. This area also has great vantage points for the Whale migration from May to November.

On the coastal road between Port Macquarie and Laurieton is Lake Cathie. A fabulous family swimming and picnic area set back from the beach by a sand bar, so flat and partly shallow for kids to swim and play.

Swim within the Flags

If you are not familiar with beaches and tidal movements, it's important to keep you and your family safe by being very water safe and try to keep within the flag area and on patrolled beaches if possible.
