Direct access to the patrolled beaches of McMasters & Copacabana, 1 min fr. Cockrone Lagoon for safe swimming, kyaking and its nature reserve. Stroll across the sand to Copacabana for a newspaper, cafes, bakery, bottle shop etc. OR 5 min drive to Kincumber Village for late trading COLES supermarket, bottle shop, restaurants, cinema, butcher, deli, chemist, library for internet etc. 7 min walk to start of Bouddi National Park. 10 min drive to more sophistication of Terrigal & Crowne Plaza Hotel.
