Palm Beach Destinations - Wagstaffe

Pretty Beach ~ Hardys Bay ~ Killcare ~ Killcare Heights

On NSW central coast, just slightly off the beaten track is the little-known residential town of Wagstaffe and the first stop on our Ettalong ferry service. Wagstaffe is located on the Bouddi Peninsula, home also to Pretty Beach, Hardys Bay, Killcare and Killcare heights. Waterfront homes line the Brisbane Waters and the surf beach is just a short stroll over the hill.

A trip to Wagstaffe is almost a step back in time, with a General Store that functions as a café, newsagency and post office too.

With known mobile blackspots, Wagstaffe and her stunning surrounds provide the perfect excuse to switch off from technologies and get back to nature, so why not escape to a world away to by visiting wonderful Wagstaffe?
