They are part of an additional 21 CCTV cameras installed at community facilities to enhance community safety.
The project has recently seen 11 CCTV cameras installed at various sites in Umina and Terrigal.
Council received $47,000 from the federal government under the Safer Communities Fund towards the project.
Mayor Jane Smith said the project was part of an overall strategy to improve the amenity of public spaces.
"The installation of 11 new CCTV cameras is aimed to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour providing assurance to the community in the use of public spaces," Cr Smith said.
Federal Member for Robertson Lucy Wicks said she was delighted to see the Coalition government's commitment to keeping the community safe on the Central Coast.
"The installation of an extra 21 CCTV cameras from San Remo to Umina will give residents using these facilities greater piece of mind," Mrs Wicks said.
"I look forward to continuing our investment in doing all we can to help keep our community safe."
There are more than 800 CCTV cameras covering the Central Coast, which have been funded through a combination of grants received from the federal government and council's operating budget, the council said.
