There’s something magical about Terrigal’s coastal charm that makes it perfect for romance – and even better when shared with your four-legged friend. Whether you’re planning a Valentine’s Day celebration or simply looking for a special date, our beautiful beachside town offers countless opportunities for creating memories with both your human and furry Valentine.
Beachside Bliss
Start your day at Wamberal Beach, where your pup can run free in the designated off-leash area. The pristine stretch of golden sand provides the perfect backdrop for a morning stroll with your loved ones. Watch your dog bound through the waves while you and your partner take in the spectacular ocean views.
For a more intimate setting, head to Terrigal Haven. This scenic spot offers a dedicated dog exercise area where your faithful friend can socialise while you enjoy quality time together. During migration season, you might even spot whales breaching in the distance – now that’s romantic!
Picnic Paradise
Pack a gourmet hamper and make your way to Terrigal Lagoon. The tranquil waterfront setting creates an ideal atmosphere for a relaxed picnic. While your dog explores the surrounding parkland, you can spread out a blanket and enjoy a selection of local delicacies. The calm waters also offer opportunities for kayaking if you’re feeling adventurous. Discover more of Terrigal’s best dog parks in our dedicated blog.
Cafe Culture
When it’s time to refuel, Terrigal’s cafe scene welcomes four-legged visitors with open arms. Bellyfish Cafe on the Esplanade offers excellent single origin coffee and modern Australian cuisine, with plenty of street-side seating where your pup can rest at your feet. Luna, an oceanfront cafe in Terrigal, provides a more laid-back vibe, complete with water bowls and occasional treats for good boys and girls.

Dining Delights
As evening approaches, numerous restaurants cater to dog-friendly dining. For a more casual atmosphere, Terrigal Beach House welcomes furry friends in their spacious outdoor section, while Chop N Grind’s burger menu can be enjoyed alongside your pup on their street-front tables.
Planning for Pawfection
Remember to pack the essentials: water bowls, waste bags, and perhaps a special treat for your dog. Being mindful of other patrons and their pets will ensure everyone enjoys their experience. Choose activities that suit both your dog’s energy level and your date preferences.
