Enjoy the October Long Weekend with Tynan Motors

The October long weekend is almost here, with Monday 6th October, marking the King’s Birthday public holiday in New South Wales. It also falls right in the middle of the school holidays, making it the perfect opportunity for families to take a short break, enjoy a road trip, or spend quality time together.

At Tynan Motors, we want to help you make the most of your long weekend — whether you’re heading off on a family getaway, exploring the South Coast, or shopping for your next car with the whole family.

Stay Safe on the Roads

With school holidays, a long weekend, and increased traffic expected, drivers should be mindful of double demerits in effect across NSW. Police will be out in force to ensure safe driving, with extra penalties applying to speeding, mobile phone use, and seatbelt offences.

A few safety reminders for your trip:

• Take regular breaks on longer drives.
• Check your tyres, fluids, and brakes before heading off.
• Ensure child seats and restraints are fitted correctly.
• Plan your route and allow extra time for holiday traffic.

Staying safe means you can enjoy the journey just as much as the destination.

Family-Friendly Getaways on the South Coast

Looking for the perfect destination for the October long weekend? The South Coast offers plenty of great options, all within easy reach by car from Sydney. Here are some ideas:

• Kiama – Famous for its blowhole, coastal walks, and family-friendly beaches.
• Jervis Bay – White sand beaches, calm waters, and dolphin or whale watching tours.
• Berry – A charming town full of boutique shops, cafes, and the famous Berry Donut Van.
• Mollymook & Ulladulla – Great for relaxing beach days, fresh seafood, and golf.
• Hyams Beach – Known for having some of the whitest sand in the world.

These destinations are perfect for a weekend away in the car — giving the whole family a chance to relax, recharge, and make memories.
