What place or image best sums up NSW for you?

Shellharbour on the South Coast. Great surf, sailboarding and ocean paddling. There’s an uncrowded beach break where you paddle across a river and walk through a rainforest just to get to it. I always love surfing that beach. To top it off there’s a café serving great coffee once you’ve paddled back across the river. It ticks all the boxes.
