Autumn glory on the Sapphire Coast Merimbula
Three reasons to visit the Sapphire Coast at this time of year are:
1. SUNRISES. It's worth getting up early to find an oceanside seat and welcome the new day, before heading to one of our cafes to enjoy a coffee. Maybe you could then take a walk along the Merimbula boardwalk, or walk from Merimbula Main Beach all the way through to Pambula Beach, stroll around the quiet streets of Fishpen or enjoy the Lake Street walk from Spencer Park to Bar Beach.
2. SUNSETS. If you're not an early riser you can do your day in reverse and end with one of the walks around Merimbula or maybe head over to Pambula for the Panboola wetland walk where you will encounter birds, kangaroos and other wildlife. We love to take in the sunsets from the Merimbula Boardwalk where the colours over Top Lake go from orange to yellow to pink to purple and everywhere inbetween.
3. FOOD! Merimbula and Pambula have a multitude of dining options, with fresh enthusiasm leading to new venues and new food. One of our dinner favourites is Bar Monti in Merimbula which serves fresh pasta, wine and good times. Little Alice Galleria in Merimbula is also a great space to get together 7 days a week from early until late. They also host special events and live entertainment occasionally so are worth following on social media. Banksia Restaurant in Pambula is truly special for fine dining in the ambience of the old Pambula Bank, a heritage listed building and local landmark.
