The word
"Umina" was derived from the Australian Aboriginal word
meaning Place of sleep, 90km or just over an hour out of Sydney
on the beaches of the NSW Central coast, just 250 metres down the trail from
South Umina Beach
Just over 1
hour north of Sydney at the southernmost point of Ocean Beach (Emerald Cove) we
are a 250 metre walk off the beach, if you prefer a small private beach we are
3km short rock walk to Pearl beach.
You are
surrounded by the beach & Brisbane Waters National Park
Umina's long
sandy beach is one of Central Coast’s most popular beaches, ideal for swimming
& surfing.
Nearby Mt.

well as south across Broken Bay down to Palm Beach. Don't forget your camera.
