SHOALHAVEN Attractions

Imagine walking hand in hand and barefoot along the white sands of Hyams Beach or kicking up the
autumn leaves on a stroll through Berry.

Imagine discovering a ruined light house - together, just the two of you, near Cape St. George.

Or maybe sitting on the dock of the bay, watching the tide roll away, eating fish and chips for two out of the paper at Ulladulla is your idea of a perfect lunch.

Sharing a lobster and a crisp bottle of white in a restaurant in Nowra is a good way to round out the day.
Nowra is the main centre of the Shoalhaven and offers a full range of shopping, restaurants and nearby wineries.

Jervis Bay is home to four pods (families) of dolphins who love to frolic and show off to visitors.
A great way to see them is to hire a sea kayak for 2 and be right amongst the action.

For fresh seafood Ulladulla in the south is the focal point with its picturesque harbour. The outstanding surf beaches of nearby Mollymook are ideal for a swim or just a stroll along the beach.
