This is a really wonderful restaurant - open Wed to Sun - set in the back of a garden created by the people who run the nursery. The food is good and it's just a really lovely place.

This corner of Woy Woy is totally unexpected. The cafe is good, cheap, fast and has a good menu. There are a collection of shops here - and places you can book massages - which are lovely to just browse in. Health food shop, clothes shop, knick knacks, op shops... the place has its own unusual - and pleasant - vibe.

Bakery and cafe. The key ring used by The Muses' Retreat will give guests a discount on their coffee. The bakery makes fresh bread, including sour dough, and it's good. And also you feel good that you're supporting local businesses.

You can fish from the wharf here. You can catch a ferry round Brisbane Water and even over to Pittwater - so this is a great way to enjoy local waterways without chartering a boat.

You can fish from the rock platforms at either end of this beach. This is where one of the walks through Bouddi National Park goes - it's approximately 8km to MacMasters Beach.

Set in a little shopping centre - I also love Edwards Butchers here. Their range of sausages has won national awards and includes a Thai Green Curry sausage. Why wouldn't you love that?
