Cheers to the fathers, the father figures, and all the legends who step up and show up on the daily! 🍻

Whether you're the king of the BBQ, the bedtime story champ, or the one who knows all the dad jokes, today is all about you.

We see you, Coastie dads: keeping it cool, calm, and collected (even when you're secretly googling how to fix the whaddya-call-it). You're the heartbeat of the fam, and we reckon that's worth celebrating!

So here’s to a day full of love, laughter, and maybe even a sneaky sleep-in. You deserve it!

Happy Father’s Day, Coasties! 💙

Welcome to Coasties.

So, who are we? Well, first of all, we’re the lifestyle magazine for the Central Coast in NSW. We’re written for Coasties by Coasties about, well you guessed it, Coasties. The first issue launches on September 1 and you’ll find it in cafes, restaurants, bars and small businesses across the Central Coast.

Coastiesmag.com is the extended digital arm of the magazine. And just like in the mag, we cover all the best places to eat, drink and play on the Central Coast. We all about uncovering our region’s secret treasures. And we love telling inspiring local stories.

​But more than anything, we’re all about supporting local businesses. Coasties came to life after COVID-19 swept through the Central Coast, closing down businesses and leaving our economy on its knees. The aim of the magazine, and coastiesmag.com, is to breathe life back into the businesses here on the Coast by showcasing the innovators, the movers and the shakers. And we’re lucky here, there’s plenty of them.

And to show how much we #lovelocal, we’ve given away all advertising space for free in our first issue. It was our way of paying it forward to the businesses that needed a little help getting back on their feet post-lockdown.
