Lifestyle magazine launches on Central Coast
A new glossy free lifestyle magazine, Coast, has launched on the NSW Central Coast. The magazine covers happenings in the coastal region just north of Sydney. The September issue features best coastal walks, how to spend 24 hours in Ettalong, local gardens, a pearl of a secret beneath the waters of Broken Bay and an “orgy of beautiful photographs”. The Central Coast region is known as a haven for nest eggers and young families. Whether it has a large enough market to support a new ad-driven glossy remains to be seen, but it’s a bold move nonetheless. This marks the second magazine launch in the last month.
