Lake Cathie (pronounced “cat-eye”) sits just 11km south of Port Macquarie on the Mid North Coast of NSW. This small coastal town has plenty to offer as a week-long escape. Empty surf breaks, beachside barbecues, fishing spots and hiking are just a few of the local activities available, with vineyards, breweries, seafood restuarants and many other attractions close at hand. The weather is enjoyable all year-round with a mild climate that reaches an average high of 26°C in summer and 19°C in winter.

Things to do

Catch the swell: the local beaches of Lake Cathie make great surfing spots. Step out the front of your apartment for a quick dip. A short walk or drive will take you to down the road to Middle Rock for a more enclosed break.
