COAL VILLAGES

A few years ago, Coalcliff was cut off from the southern area of the Northern Illawarra by a road closure.
The Sea Cliff Bridge has now completed the Grand Pacific Drive - and become a major tourist draw. Coalcliff is also a favourite spot for fishermen.
Over the bridge at Scarborough pop into the Scarborough Hotel for lunch or a cool drink (ph 4267 5544). You can stay in nearby Wombarra at Barra Beach Holiday Accommodation, an apartment with great ocean views (ph 4267 3444).
Coledale is the next village. There is a beautiful beach and the Coledale Camping Reserve overlooking Coledale Beach (ph 4267 4302). For breakfast or lunch from Wednesday to Sunday or dinner Wednesday to Saturday try Chedo's Cafe (ph 4268 3000).
On the fourth Sunday of every month at the Coledale Public School is the Coledale Market running from 9am to 3pm (ph 0422 781 920).
