As the holiday season envelops us in its warmth, we at CTC feel truly blessed to call the NSW Central Coast our home. Christmas is a magical time here, not only for the joy of festivities but also for the opportunity to relish the breathtaking beauty of our surroundings while spending quality time with friends and family.
The Central Coast is a treasure trove of natural wonders. With over 40 pristine beaches, this coastal haven becomes a bustling hub during the holiday season, as its population swells dramatically. From tranquil seaside towns to vibrant community events, the region embodies the quintessential Australian summer—perfect for creating unforgettable Christmas memories.
Umina Beach: A Slice of Paradise
One of the crown jewels of the Central Coast, Umina Beach, offers a family-friendly environment with golden sands and gentle waves. Whether you’re taking a leisurely stroll, building sandcastles with the kids, wandering through Umina Markets or enjoying a swim, Umina Beach has something for everyone. Its proximity to cafes and picnic spots makes it an ideal destination for holiday relaxation.
Brisbane Waters: Adventure and Serenity Combined
For those seeking a unique way to celebrate the holidays, Brisbane Waters provides a perfect blend of adventure and serenity. One of the highlights of this area is hiring a BBQ boat from Andersons Boat Hire. These boats are easy to operate and come equipped with everything you need for a floating feast, allowing you to explore the scenic waterways while enjoying a delicious meal with loved ones. It’s a quintessential Central Coast experience that brings together nature, food, and good company.
Backyard BBQs: The Heart of Australian Christmas
Christmas on the Central Coast wouldn’t be complete without the classic backyard BBQ. Gathering with friends and family in the comfort of your home, sharing laughter and delicious food, epitomises the spirit of the season. From sizzling steaks to fresh seafood, these moments of togetherness around the grill create lasting memories and strengthen bonds.
Boxing Day Thrills: Australia vs. India
Another highlight of this festive season was the thrilling Boxing Day Test match in December 2024, where Australia triumphed over India in a nail-biting finish. Watching the game with family and friends, cheering for every boundary and wicket, added an extra layer of excitement to the holiday. The match showcased the resilience and skill of the Australian cricket team, leaving fans exhilarated and proud. It was a moment of shared celebration that brought the nation together.
At CTC, we cherish the festive season as a time to reflect on the year gone by and look forward to the opportunities ahead. We are incredibly grateful for the support of our community, which continues to inspire and energise us.
As we embrace the joy and hope of Christmas, we extend our warmest wishes to you and your family for a Merry Christmas and a prosperous 25. May your holiday season be filled with love, laughter, and the beauty of the Central Coast. Here’s to another year of connection, growth, and shared success. We appreciate you!
