Avoca Beach
There’s something for everyone at Avoca. That’s two kilometres of golden sand for sun baking; towering Norfolk pines for those who prefer a little shade; good swells for surfers; a protected ocean rock pool for kids; craggy headlands for fishermen; and a lagoon for a sheltered splash around, too. Only an hour and a half north of Sydney, Avoca is popular with well-heeled weekenders from Sydney’s salubrious northern suburbs.
