Lake Cathie (pronounced ‘cat-eye’) is a small resort and fishing village, is just 12km south of the major mid-north coastal town, Port Macquarie. This peaceful lakeside village, only minutes from a surf beach, is the perfect holiday setting and a family-friendly place to live.
Lake Cathie is a self-contained community on the shores of a warm shallow, tidal lagoon. Located behind a wide, uncluttered surfing beach, the lake provides recreational fishing, boating and swimming. Lake Cathie's large saltwater lake is the second largest estuarine salt march area in NSW.
Periodically opened to the sea, the lake is ideal for young children and there are lots of picnic tables and BBQs around the shore. Venture up to the northern headland where a fantastic forest walk has been established with a viewing platform offering fabulous views across the lake and the ocean.
