We Visit Forster, NSW, Australia

Forster Main Beach

Suzi has the builders in. They are adding an extra room to the house, so we all decided to escape the dust and noise. Katelyn was very excited that we were off to the seaside. We went to Forster Main Beach for a day of sand, sea and fun.

After a typical seaside fish and chips lunch, we headed for the beach. Unfortunately, the water was rather too cold for swimming, but the sandy beach was perfect for playing in!

There's even a submerged wreck in the bay.

Forster's salt water swimming pool

We decided to try the salt water pool, but that was also too cold for Katelyn to swim in.

...instead, she played in the sand with Suzi and Neil.

Here is Katelyn the mermaid.

Over Christmas, this beach is crowded, but now is a great time to go.

The coastal town of Forster, was named after William Forster, a one-time Premier of New South Wales. It is renown as an adventure playground, with whale and dolphin watching cruises, fishing, sailboarding and scuba diving, making this a popular holiday destination.
