The publishers
The South Coaster book is brought to you by the Word Bureau, local family publishers of 2508 District news & 2515 Coast News. Any profits from this book will go into the production of the community news, ensuring the future of the local mags you love.
How the South Coaster began
It started in 2016 as a free A5 tourist mag, a quarterly supplement to our local news magazines in the northern Illawarra – 2515 Coast News and 2508 District News.
Magazine becomes book
Along with much of Australia, the mag went into hibernation in April 2020 and by December it will be reinvented a book – sold via our website, local info centres and other local shops.
It's an all-Australian production!
The book will be 196 pages, printed on FSC-certified offset stock at our printers in Sydney.
Sharing local knowledge
The book's focus is on fun, family and adventure – with lots of outdoor action and nature escapes.
In the South Coaster, we love to share local knowledge and promote local business – so, a surf champ shares his favourite beaches, a cycle tour leader shares great bike rides and a SUP coach shares her top spots for stand-up paddle boarding.
