This Australia Day long weekend we headed to the coast for the first time as a family of three. Archer is such a water baby so we were pretty convinced it was going to be the best weekend of his young life to date. The weekend was even more special as we spent it with friends who have a son three weeks younger then Archer so it was great to watch them play and interact. It is crazy to think this time last year we were at the beach were wondering when these babies were going to make an appearance and now a year later they are nearly both little toddlers. I know its overstated but time is going to quickly.
We spent most of the weekend taking the boys and the dogs to the beach and napping. I definitely took the oppurtunity to nap ALOT, napping is much more guilt free on holidays when you don’t have to feel bad about the endless chores that are waiting to be done. Between all the swimming and napping that we did get to do some fun activities and of course ate lots of yummy food. A quick list of things I would recommend is below which only scratches the surface of this beautiful area . Please let me know any recommendations you have for this area as hopefully we will head there again next year!
Where to eat…
- Buy fresh seafood from Wheelers
- Healthy and delicious breakfast from Mormors (lots of vegan and vegetarian options)
- Best burgers from Dulcies
- Merimbula wharf ( I had the seafood linguine, so delicious)
- Thai of Covington (a good takeaway option)
What to do..
- Walk from Pambula to Merimbula along the beach (approx 6km) and then reward yourself with breakfast
- Swim under Nethercote Falls (about 20 mins from Pambula) just don’t get lost like us
- Play golf at Pambula Merimbula Golf Course, I can’t vouch for this one but the boys seem to like it
