Central Coast Council invites you to visit Mangrove Creek Dam Visitors Centre during the spring school holidays for our Mini Dam Discovery Day – A School Holiday Adventure!
When: Wednesday 1 October 2025
Where: Mangrove Creek Dam Visitors Centre - Mangrove Dam Road, Kulnura.

Drive out to Mangrove Creek Dam Visitor Centre for a great day out. Our water education team will be on site sharing how water makes its way from the catchment to your tap across the Central Coast. Kids (and adults) will love the interactive displays inside the Visitor Centre, and with playgrounds, picnic areas and free BBQs on site – it’s the perfect winter day out for all ages.
Bring a picnic lunch, stop in at one of the many nearby cafes, or pack a BBQ to enjoy the facilities. And don’t forget your camera – the views over the dam are spectacular!
