Hyams Beach

Known for its sugar-white sand, Hyams Beach is an idyllic holiday destination, with crystal clear waters and a fringe of national park completing the picture.

Uncover scenic coastal walks, meet native wildlife and explore the glittering ocean in this small village in the Shoalhaven region of the NSW South Coast.

Found on the southern shores of the splendid Jervis Bay Marine Park, the calm turquoise waters of Hyams Beach are perfect for swimming, snorkelling and stand-up paddle boarding.

Stroll the beach and feel the soft sands squeak underfoot or roll out your towel and listen to the gentle waves.

Tourism and infrastructure financed has assisted in transforming Hyams Beach to one of the popular areas within the NSW tourism industry.

Due to tourists visiting the area frequently and in masses, a freeway reaching the whole 190 km to Sydney was finished in 2017.

Murrays Beach

Known as the jewel in the Booderee National Park, Murrays Beach offers swimmers and snorkelers alike, with pristine clear waters and pearly white sand.

Perfect for families, Murrays Beach is situated in a protected bay which is sheltered by Bowen Island.

Cave Beach Lookout

Cave Beach is a picturesque, unpatrolled surf beach located within the Booderee National Park at the southern end of Jervis Bay, New South Wales, Australia.

It’s known for its excellent surfing conditions, natural beauty, and the namesake small caves found along the shoreline. The area also offers a unique camping experience among coastal trees, with walking trails, wildlife, and opportunities for bushwalking and swimming.

Huskisson

In the heart of Jervis Bay, Huskisson is a slice of vibrant (and award-winning) paradise, rich in natural beauty.

Surrounded by a marine park teeming with wildlife and unspoilt bushland, go swimming at a white sand beach, or freediving with seals.

Part of the Shoalhaven and Jervis bay region  of the South Coast, the crystal blue waters off Huskisson are home to abundant marine life, including dolphins, fur seals, penguins and weedy sea dragons.

Despite its size, there’s lots to do in this tiny town (and its surrounds) beyond exploring the big blue.
