Exciting news for the area. The bypass will shave off 12 minutes of travel and 12 sets of traffic lights through Coffs Harbour.

Good to see investment in a region with continued steady growth.

How good is Woopi?
This is Woolgoolga Lake in the Coffs Coast Regional Park.

If surfing is not your thing but you still want to live close to the water, this is what coastal living is all about. A calm tidal lake surrounded by eucalypts and paperbarks, with picnic spots, walking tracks and an easy coastal feel that makes every day feel slower in the best way.

Perfect for relaxed afternoons by the water, birdlife all around and some fishing when the tide is right. Swell is close to beaches, nature and everything that makes this stretch of coast so special.

Are you a lake or a beach person? 🌊🌿
