Nearby Towns and Villages

The Tweed Coast and the villages dotted along it are famous for beaches, surfing, fishing, reserves and beachside parks.

Located on the coast due east of Mt Warning, Pottsville offers a variety of mainly budget accommodation including caravan parks, cabins, holiday flats and motels.

Hastings Point and Cabarita Beach just to the north, provide a more diverse range of lodgings, ranging from holiday bungalows and flats, to motels, caravan parks and holiday resorts.

The creeks and estuaries provide ample opportunities for exploration, with canoeing, fishing and swimming popular, especially with children.  The Tweed Bicentennial Environmental Park is a delightful natural setting for family picnics, walking and bicycling.

Pottsville Beach Markets run by the Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre operate on the first and third Sunday morning of the month, at the Phillip Street Reserve.

An off-road bicycling and walking path connects the villages, with the ample picnic areas along the coast providing free electric B.B.Q.s and amenities.  At Norries Headland (Cabarita) and Hastings Point, timbered walking tracks wind from the beach to the headland.  Boat launch ramps are available at Pottsville and Hastings Point.  Mt Warning and Nightcap National Parks are about 40 km away.
