Urunga

Just 20 minutes south of Coffs Harbour and 15 minutes from Bellingen, Urunga is a hidden gem where the Bellinger and Kalang Rivers meet the ocean. This charming seaside village is loved for its peaceful atmosphere, natural beauty, and easy-going pace.

Life in Urunga revolves around the water. Go boating, fishing or swimming, enjoy a riverside picnic, or simply slow down and take in the scenery.

The Urunga Boardwalk offers a beautiful riverside and coastal experience, with stunning water views and a peaceful route from town along the river and foreshore. An 850-metre section of the new boardwalk is currently open, including a viewing platform with elevated views across the river and surrounding landscape. A new 80-metre section and fishing platform are also now open. While still under construction, the boardwalk already offers a glimpse of the iconic walking experience planned for completion in 2026.

Surrounded by tranquil waterways, wetlands and beaches, Urunga also has a welcoming selection of cafes, clubs and local facilities. Riverside parks, sportsgrounds and shady foreshore spots add to its relaxed appeal.

Whether you're exploring nature, enjoying a meal with a view, or paddling along calm waters, Urunga offers an authentic and relaxing coastal escape.
