## Spots in Central Coast NSW

- [Avoca](https://yosurf.app/spot/avoca): Central Coast NSW; Point / beach; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; One of the Central Coast's most consistent spots, and a hotbed of talent. The south end is sheltered from S winds.
- [Umina Beach](https://yosurf.app/spot/umina-beach): Central Coast NSW; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A beach at the head of Broken Bay, facing southeast. Well sheltered, it needs a SE to S swell to wake up.
- [Birdie Beach](https://yosurf.app/spot/birdie-beach): Central Coast NSW; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate; A long beach in Munmorah National Park, at the north of the Central Coast. Sandbars, lefts and rights.
- [Catherine Hill Bay](https://yosurf.app/spot/catherine-hill-bay): Central Coast NSW; Beach break / jetée; levels beginner, intermediate; A bay in the shadow of an old coal-mining town and its coal loader jetty. Very consistent, often bigger than its neighbours.
- [Wamberal Beach/Spoonies](https://yosurf.app/spot/wamberal-beach-spoonies): Central Coast NSW; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A highly consistent beach break, excellent when the sandbanks are in shape. Sensitive to the afternoon sea breeze.
- [Killcare](https://yosurf.app/spot/killcare): Central Coast NSW; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A sheltered beach in Bouddi National Park, near Box Head. Simple waves, lefts and rights over sand.
- [Terrigal](https://yosurf.app/spot/terrigal): Central Coast NSW; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A town beach where beginners look for peaks in the sheltered southern corner. A good call in a southerly buster.
- [Shelly Beach](https://yosurf.app/spot/shelly-beach-central-coast): Central Coast; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A busy but consistent Central Coast beach, great for beginners. The northern end can spit out nice barrels, and the rocky left-hand shelf holds up to 3m.
- [Frazer Park](https://yosurf.app/spot/frazer-park): Central Coast; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate; Coming from Newcastle, a pretty beach tucked inside a small national park. Consistent, fun peaky waves in summer, but it closes out past 6ft.
- [Soldiers Beach](https://yosurf.app/spot/soldiers-beach): Central Coast; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; Right next to Norah Head, better sheltered from the summer NE breeze. A consistent beachbreak with banks that suit all levels, plus a fickle left point.
- [Pelican Beach](https://yosurf.app/spot/pelican-beach): Central Coast; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; The most reliable option in the area when swell is lacking. A long, wide-open beach that works year-round, with good banks on small NE swell.
