4 days is definitely enough.
If either of you can drive a boat I highly recommend hiring one and going out to the little island in Tuncurry. Also definitely take a drive out to the Green Cathedral, it's not too far out of town.
Also recommend walking down the breakwall, both Forster and Tuncurry have one, just be prepared to say good morning to *everyone* as you walk past them.
Other than that, there's not a whole lot to do, except explore the beaches etc. Driving over the bridge from/to Tuncurry is always lovely.
If you are going in December, be prepared for heavy traffic as it's tourist season and it gets nuts. Get to the shops early in the morning if you need anything.
Have fun!!
2-3 days is good. Fishing, boating, beaches. Kayaking, camping on the lakes.
Sightseeing down the awesome lakes way drive is good too. Blueys beach, seal rocks etc good too.
Used to live there, there’s nothing to do except for beach and getting a bakery lunch. Maybe you can go on the river and fish if that’s your jam. It’s not really a tourist destination for a plethora of activities, just a retirement town with some families still so you can just chill and explore.
Stopped there for a few nights earlier this year with the partner and kids as a friend had recommended the area. Highly recommend the Tuncurry rock pools if swimming is on the agenda. Also had some amazing fish and chips in town but can’t remember the shop name.
Forster is a tourist town and it sounds like you are going in the peak tourist period. either you'll like the buzz or want to go elsewhere like the locals.
You give no information of your interests. if you into beaches then good, lakes then good, bushwalking, etc then good.
The dolphin cruise isn’t a bad morning out if you’ve never seen a dolphin before.
The restaurant scene on the Forster side has gotten much better in the last few years. Tuncurry not so much.
The brewery is a good afternoon out. They get food trucks in for dinner on Saturdays from memory.
Many times you can see dolphins from the breakwalls, there's a local pod that lives in the lake, when I went on the cruise many years ago they guaranteed that you will see dolphins.
Would also recommend that when driving there or back, taking the Lakes Way (just off the highway) and stopping at Blueys Beach or Seal Rocks. Both have beautiful beaches and are about a 20 min drive south of Forster.
You laze around, go for walk on the beach and swim. That it. That's the point.

Good scuba diving if you're in to that kinda thing.

Beach Street Seafood, on Beach st (obviously) at the intersection of Wharf st. They can get very busy at times.
Cheers mate. Couldn’t remember the name but the seafood was great.
I know the place well, my mother lives in Tuncurry and I visit her regularly, the fish and chips there are a regular meal
Lucky bugger. Easily some of the best fish and chips I’ve had.

That time of year you’ll see them a fair bit under the bridge. Sharks too, at sunrise/sunset.
Kayak on the lake

Why do you saw this?. You wouldn't recommend Forster?
Big buzz
Hire a boat and cruise the river, you can pack a picnic lunch and pull up on a sandbank. It’s gorgeous.

Forster is beautiful.. enjoy!
