MidCoast Area
The MidCoast region centres on Taree and Forster‑Tuncurry and stretches from rugged headlands to the leafy escarpment of the Great Dividing Range. Its rivers and lakes are playgrounds for boating and fishing, while beaches range from surfing breaks to family‑friendly coves. Inland, cool‑climate vineyards and dairy farms dot the hills. Locals glide their kayaks through the tea‑tree infused waters of the Myall Lakes at dawn and walk a seldom‑used path to Crowdy Head lighthouse to watch the sun rise over the Pacific in solitude.
MidCoast Council has an approximate area of 10,000 km².
It is comprised of the state electorate of Myall Lakes plus parts of Port Macquarie, Port Stephens and Upper Hunter.
