The lakes and beaches
Why stay anywhere else but on the water? If you come to Smiths Lake to holiday, it is the only place to be!!
Smiths Lake is the playground of the Pacific Palms region. The lake is suitable for all water sports and if you're not on it at least be sure you can view the changing vista and the sunsets which are to be seen to be believed!
Smiths Lake is famous for the enormous sandbar which divides the lake from the Pacific Ocean. From time to time the sandbar is manually opened to allow the lake to drain and refresh the fish stocks, rendering it tidal for a time. Fishing is a favourite pastime here for both commercial and recreational fisherman with an abundance available.
Smiths Lake is only a few minutes drive from WORLD CLASS beaches, namely Bluey's Boomerang and Cellito at Sandbar. Elizabeth Beach is the safest swimming for children.
Of course just 20 minutes or so away are the magnificent beaches of the Forster Tuncurry region. All the way to Forster, you will pass Wallis Lake on your left which is well worth a visit. Stop at the simply beautiful green cathedral, the wedding venue in the mid north coast under a canopy of palms with a superb view of Wallis Lake.
On your way you will see the Rec Club at Pacific Palms where there is a boat ramp if you choose to go to Forster by water. There are public areas to moor your boat on Forster side.
