The Entrance is a district centre and town of the
Central Coast region of New South Wales,
Australia. The Entrance is part of the Wyong
Shire local government area. At the 2011
census, The Entrance had a population of 3,873
people.

The town occupies an area of land that is
bounded by water on three sides. The Entrance
gains its name from the channel that runs
along much of its northern border that is the
entrance to The Tuggerah Lakes. The Entrance
has been a popular holiday destination since
the first guest house was established there in
1885.

As a beloved "holiday playground of two cities"
The Entrance continues to grow with new
tourist accommodation, including the Pullman
Hotel at North Entrance, the redevelopment of
residential areas, and the enhancement
of recreational facilities. The district's main
tourist attractions are its beaches, lake and
town centre. It is also suitably located for day
trips to the Hunter Valley vineyards.
