New Entrance, New South Wales
- New Entrance, New South Wales
The Geographical Names Board of New South Wales designates New Entrance as a River Mouth and describes it as “The mouth of the Macleay River where it enters the Pacific Ocean about 2 km NW of South West Rocks.” The name was acquired in 1893 when the river changed its course and created a new river entrance.
Locals also refer to the neighbouring hillside residential estate as New Entrance although this is not officially a recognised locality, merely part of the South West Rocks, New South Wales locality.
A boat ramp and fishing charters also leave from this area. Although there are no shops, New Entrance is home to the well-known Riverside Tavern.
The area is home to some of South West Rocks' most exclusive houses, as the area has panoramic views of the surrounding area to the west and the Pacific Ocean. Despite this, the area has a well known Sandfly problem and is often referred to by locals as "Sandfly Hill".
