Sawtell
A few minutes’ drive from the sunny city of Coffs Harbour is a delightful seaside village that has somehow retained all its quiet and shady charm, in defiance of the over-development that has spoiled some other centres along the Pacific Highway.
It’s Sawtell, where cool bistros and restaurants line the tree-lined
main street and a heritage cinema proudly displays its art-deco attractions;
where Pacific rollers curl lazily in to break on uncrowded beaches and
migrating whales pass close to scenic headlands; and where discerning visitors
can enjoy total relaxation.
Sawtell itself is a delight – on a calm, warm summer evening along the block of First Avenue between Boronia and Second you can grab a sidewalk table and enjoy your choice of Thai, Indian, Mod-Oz, French, seafood, steaks, pub grub and the best fish & chips on the coast.
