Hop Down to The Gong for Easter and all that Jazz
New ‘Hot Deals’ have been released for a long weekend by the beach in Wollongong this Easter.
In between Easter eggs in your hotel, relax on one of the city’s 17 beaches, drive or cycle across the stately new Sea Cliff Bridge on Grand Pacific Drive, brave the bobsleds at Jamberoo Action Park or enjoy the sax appeal of the city’s 20th annual Easterfest Jazz Festival.
Close to the beach, the new Quest Wollongong is offering luxury one-bedroom serviced apartments for $190 per night for two people including an ‘Easter basket of goodies’.
And Rydges Wollongong has an indulgent package for guests keen to do Easter in style. The package is available for $320 per room per night including accommodation in a spa suite, room service breakfast, bath oils, champagne, cheese platter, parking and newspaper.
Both deals are valid to May 31, 2006 and subject to availability.
Bookings are available online at www.tourismwollongong.com or call Tourism Wollongong toll-free on 1800 240 737.
Wollongong’s Easterfest Jazz Festival, from April 14-17, includes several free performances in the city’s Crown Street Mall. For details, phone 4283 4287 or contact Tourism Wollongong.
Other available activities include cycling along Wollongong’s 20km beach-hugging bicycle track, learning to surf, riding a Harley, hang-gliding over Stanwell Park, parachuting onto the beach, trekking through escarpment rainforests and enjoying the city’s stylish new ocean-view eateries and boutique brewery.
