The charming seaside village of Angourie, 5kms south of Yamba, is at the northern tip
of Yuraygir National Park, which has
one of the most spectacular coastal walks in the state.
Spectacular views of the coastline a glorious natural setting and
a laid-back, relaxed lifestyle make Angourie a very desirable
destination.
You can soak up all this beauty when
you stay at one of the luxury
holiday units, grab a delicious meal or coffee from the local
café/store or take some time to browse through the local
art & craft boutique shop.

In the 1960s Angourie became famous as one of the best
point-breaks in Australia and is often visited by the world’s best
surfers. Many of the world's top surfers have visited and continue
to visit the village on a regular basis. If you've never surfed
before try one of the local surf
schools to get some expert instruction.
While the famous Angourie point-breaks sweeps onto rocks and can
be dangerous for inexperienced board riders, there are many
kilometres of open beaches surrounding Angourie.
Angourie is also renowned for its fresh water Blue & Green Pools,
originally a rock quarry that filled with water when a spring was
disturbed. The pools are very deep and are a very popular swimming
spot. wooloweyah

Just to the west of Angourie is the small village of Wooloweyah with
the enviable location on the banks of Lake Wooloweyah and nestled
into the Yuraygir National Park.
This area is
popular with windsurfers, canoeists and
fishermen who like to take
full advantage of the wide waters of Lake Wooloweyah. There is a
charming parkland area near to the lake with tennis court,
children's playground and community hall. |
