Resort Temptations

Offering beachfront seclusion just 25 minutes drive from the townships of Taree and 20 minutes to Forster, Serenity Diamond Beach is the perfect getaway for both couples and families.
Tallwoods Golf Course
Approximately 5 minutes drive from the resort is Tallwoods Golf Course, which was designed by one of the world’s leading environmental golf course designers, Dr Michael Hurdzan.
Tom Ramsey, renown golf writer and judge on US Golf Magazine’s Top 100 courses in the World, called the course “a collection of holes that are challenging and stimulating, all difficult but not impossible, always exciting and always individual”.
