Top places to take the family these school holidays
School holidays are just around the corner. And while for some families this means a jam-packed schedule of activities, for others, the winter break is the perfect opportunity to pack up the car, head out of town and slow down the pace.
Whether you're planning on road tripping to Rippleside or setting sail at Shellharbour, here’s some July school holiday inspiration to help get you started.
Go camping at Waratah Bay, VIC
Pack your thermals and snuggle up in beautiful Waratah Bay. This picturesque bay tucked into the eastern Victorian coast is a wonderful place to crack out the beach cricket, brave a chilly paddle and unpack a delicious picnic.
Enjoy the tranquillity of this coastal haven, explore the unspoilt foreshore walks and discover the magic of nearby Wilsons Promontory. And after a big day out in the fresh air, it's easy to make sure everyone's happy, full and warm again with a range of easy curries, stews and hot meals from Salad Servers, ready to heat and eat around the campfire!
Stroll the capital in Canberra, ACT
There’s no better time to soak in some of our nation’s history than during winter in Canberra. Wander through museums, galleries and memorials, then relax with a coffee by the lake as the kids explore by paddle boat. Make sure you take your time mooching through the markets and discovering back-alley hidden gems in this compact city. Often overshadowed by the bright lights of Sydney and Melbourne, you might just see our cool little capital with fresh eyes!
