Whether you're looking to explore the coast, get out on the water, or dive into something new, there's plenty happening in and around Wollongong this weekend. From workshops and talks to outdoor activities and wellbeing sessions, you'll find something to suit your interests and energy levels.

If you're keen to learn something fresh, there are workshops covering everything from artificial intelligence and data storytelling to venture capital and investment basics. For the creatively inclined, there's an opportunity to explore business and artist collaboration. If you'd rather get outside, coastal excursions and nature experiences are on the cards, including fishing days, guided eco tours, and a chance to unwind with some meditation by the ocean.

Whatever draws you - whether it's professional development, time in nature, or simply a chance to meet your community - the coming days offer a nice mix of ways to make the most of your time on the Illawarra Coast.
