10 COAST magazine and COASTIES Mag join forces! The Central Coast’s two most popular magazines COAST and Coasties Mag have announced that they have joined forces. Both will retain their separate identities and content says COAST magazine’s publisher, Catharine Retter. “But combining means we can share extra resources and admin costs, and become stronger together. It’s a win-win for our readers and for local businesses and represents a strengthened commitment to putting the Central Coast on the map,: Ms Retter said. COAST is a premium lifestyle and tourism magazine founded by Ms Retter and was first published in 2018 after she moved to the Central Coast from Sydney and saw a business opportunity for a quality magazine that would showcase the best of the region. She had previously been a book publisher and it was probably those values that she brought to publishing a magazine. Coasties magazine is a digital publication with a focus on What’s On and Where to Eat on the Central Coast with a reach of 40,000 digital monthly readers. Coasties was first published in 2020 by a local journalist who sold the publication shortly after to locals Nikki Tiedeman and Tash Robertson.
