© Nick Frame Digital 2010 Scotts Head is a relaxed, beautiful coastal town located halfway between Brisbane and Sydney. It is only one hour drive south of Coffs Harbour and north of Port Macquarie. Scotts Head is basically made up of three beaches. Most northerly is Big Beach (or more properly Forster Beach).The southern end of Big Beach, is a great safe swimming spot and also has a nice point wave for mal riders. Further north along the beach there are also often nice beach breaks. Big Beach is patrolled during the holiday season. South of Big Beach is Little Beach which is a great spot for short board riders and body surfers and more experienced swimmers. There is no life saving service at Little Beach.Big Beach and Little Beach are separated by the Scotts Head headland. The headland at the south end of Little Beach is named Elephant head and the beaches beyond that are named Turtle Cove (sometimes called Pirate Cove) and finally Wakki Beach. There are many things to do at Scotts Head including surfing, diving, fishing, bowls, tennis, bushwalking, boating, horse riding and scenic drives. .
