Hone your putting skills against a global community at The Putting Hub or play some of the best courses in the world without leaving the Central Coast at FOREplay Golf, if you need some liquid courage you can also take advantage of the fully licensed lounge bar.

4. Is classic ten-pin bowling more your speed? Well why not, it is a classic for a reason. Gosford City Bowl and Bateau Bay Tenpin Bowl both offer you that quintessential, disco vibe experience with neon lights, mood music, and well-stocked lolly bars.

6. Throw yourself into the excitement of a full-throttle laser tag game at Laser Mania where lasers and laughter are the aims of the game.
