Kanwal is a suburb of the Central Coast region of New South Wales, Australia. It is part of the Wyong Shire local government area. It is approximately 90 km north of Sydney, 55km south of Newcastle and 6 km west of the Pacific Ocean.
The area now known as Kanwal was a subdivision of Warnervale.
Kanwal is said to mean "snakes indeed" in a local Aboriginal language.
The dominating feature of Kanwal is the Wyong Rugby League Club to the northeast of the suburb. It is home to the Wyong Roos, a rugby league football club, three sporting ovals, two netball courts and a youth and community centre. There are several parks in Kanwal including Craigie Park to the east facing onto Tuggerah Lake, a wetland area to the northwest and another sporting oval to the south separate from the Rugby League Club. Other landmarks in the area include a small shopping village, a primary school, an aged care facility, four buildings of religious worship and a caravan park.
The area is serviced by four regular bus routes, each starting at Lake Haven Shopping Centre and terminating at Wyong railway station or Westfield Tuggerah and vice versa. All four routes split up in different directions at Kanwal, two servicing the northern and western areas and the other two servicing eastern and southern areas together.
