Lake Macquarie Region

Wrapped around Australia’s largest coastal saltwater lake, Lake Macquarie City offers a relaxed lifestyle centred on water. Sailing, fishing and lakeside barbecues are everyday activities, and the surrounding beaches provide surf and sand. The Watagans National Park rises to the west, offering rainforest walks and lookouts over the lake. Locals paddle their kayaks to Pulbah Island for a picnic on its rocky shore and explore a hidden sea cave called the Bogey Hole at Caves Beach, accessible only at low tide and a favourite with adventurous swimmers.

Lake Macquarie Council has an approximate area of 760 km².

It is comprised of the state electorate of Lake Macquarie plus parts of Cessnock, Charlestown, Swansea and Wallsend.
