Dolphins in Forster/Tuncurry
Always keep a watch out for Dolphins, they come all the way into the bay under the bridge fishing....you can walk out to the breakwater on the Tuncurry (north side of the bridge) and watch them come in on the tide near sundown; or on the south side walk out past the Marine Rescue. Get some fish and chips from Forster’s Main Street and take a picnic.

Surf Beaches
Loads of surfing beaches around including Diamond Beach itself, although the break is small and short, it’s right on your doorstep. Or head south about 40min drive to Elizabeth Beach, Shelley Beach, Boomerang Beach, and Blueys Beach, pending weather - lovely beaches for families, very popular and good north break off Boomerang.

If you love oysters then the wonderfully fresh Wallace Lake Oysters are available all over Forster and Tuncurry. Head to Hamiltons on the north side of the bridge (Tuncurry side, turn left just as you go north over the bridge, go to the end of the road and turn left again). Book for weekends, live music on sundays.
