Penguin, with its distinctive beachside look and feel, and Ulverstone the administrative centre, both attract visitors with shops and stores selling locally grown produce and locally crafted giftware. Ulverstone’s recently completed Wharf Complex with restaurant and community space, completes a major river-side development that also boasts extensive multi-use tracks and children’s playgrounds. “Location,location,location!”, it’s the Central Coast’s ‘geographic centrality’ that makes it a great place for visitors to stay.
