Thanks to all the locals for your support.



24.01.2022 Good morning, another beautiful Iluka Sunday. A quick update. Now that the development approval (DA) has been granted we’ve set Xmas 2020 as an opening time to move towards. So, headlong into the next phase; talking to local builders and trades. Still a lot of preliminary work to do such as interior design, building and engineering design, tenders etc. If you have friends looking for work or just interest in Iluka, please share and join our friends group here Https://www.fac...ebook.com/groups/IlukaBeach/?source_id=2007270936221588 On another topic; Our Iluka Haiku poetry contest is off to a slow start, maybe that event is missing it’s mark and not getting through. $100 worth of local fishing gear up for grabs. Surely there are a few local bush and fishy poets with something to say have a go and post a Haiku! Thanks again for your support. Derk

22.01.2022 Hi Everyone, I you haven't done so already, don't forget to join our group for regular updates and events.

19.01.2022 The Theme was Team! at the North Coast Tourism Symposium yesterday. Julie and I drove down to Coffs (from the Gold Coast) for the Northern NSW tourism confe...rence. There were some important messages to share with Clarence Valley residents. The highlight for us was Lilly and Trevor Lee’s from ‘TravConsult’ closing Pep Talk Be Remarkable during which they showed a Clarence River video and encourages everyone to find our own Purple Roo, that which makes us stand out. Other key messages were: * 43% of the ‘International Tourism Dollar’ is spent regionally * Ecotourism is leading the charge in search of Green spaces and wild places. * Heritage National Parks are a priority with tourists visiting Australia. * Accessibility and inclusiveness is of major importance. * Joshua Allen from ‘Synchronicity Farm’ at Nana Glen gave a great talk on establishing permaculture and ‘farm-gate experience’ on only 1.5 acres, which scored him a $200k government grant. He spoke about the importance of establishing food and wine trails. Visit his farm and learn! The overall theme was the importance of working as a team to attract tourism to the area. However, the conference was somewhat parochial, Coffs Coast tourism took center stage, so we didn’t feel motivated to join that team, however what was obvious was that the Clarence Valley has so much more to offer than the Coffs Coast: I don’t have to convince the locals but; firstly, the greatest river system on the East Coast, and two; with the highway upgrade, under 2hrs to Gold Coast International Airport. Three; a better harbour than Coffs ‘Harbour’ and four; surf-beaches! The key element being; proximity to an international airport, Coffs is trying hard. In conclusion, the "remarkable" message was, businesses need to train as a team and hunt as a pack. NZ does great nature-based tourism. Visit and see how they hunt as a pack. The conference buoyed our own belief that Iluka is unique and has it all and more so from now on, Facebook Friends of Iluka Beach Surf&Yoga will be regarded as Team Iluka. Join the team.



03.01.2022 ONE STEP CLOSER! After 12 months of planning, Clarence Valley Councillors today approved Surf&Yoga P/L development application for a 40-room resort by an 8-1 vote in favour. (concept video on this page). The Project Director, Derk Vanderbent expects that when operational the resort could add up to three million dollars per annum to the community’s economy. "Local residents are keen for new employment opportunities in the area, and business is keen to embrace a new holiday de...stination with a modern accommodation approach" said Mr Vanderbent. "The resort will have a surfing-fitness center and promote Eco-tourism with a focus on the traditional home of the Yagal and Bundjalung people". The World Heritage listed Iluka Nature Reserve and Bundjalung National Park are a short walk from the site. The resort has been approved with an 18m lap-pool, gym, room-spas, bunk-rooms, massage, rooftop yoga deck and basement parking for 43 cars. The multi-million-dollar resort with a-la-cart restaurant and bar replaces an old petrol-station which has been derelict for over 14 years. The resort will add a new exciting face to the entrance of Iluka village precinct. Planned to be a venue for functions, sporting groups and local and international tourists alike. Guests will have a choice of elite spa-rooms, family rooms and poshtell style bunk-rooms for group bookings. We chose Iluka for the same reasons everybody comes here, the small coastal village atmosphere, already catering for surfers, golfers, bowlers and fisherfolk. With tennis-courts an oval, skate-park and bowling-green across the road and a short walk to local shopping, top surfing and fishing spots, bused in tourists won’t need a car said Mr. Vanderbent. Everything visitors need, is within walking distance. We have the interests of Iluka at heart and plan to promote the ecology of the area. The local community is excited and have been awesome with their support. We are also excited about our project, we love Iluka and plan to add to its visitor appeal.
