The Bay is a short drive from Nowra and only a pleasant two and half hour drive south of Sydney via the Princes Highway, is a typical holiday destination, of under-developed, sleepy holiday resorts and fishing ports.
In the middle of the Shoalhaven the No.1 Tourist Destination in
the state of New South Wales, the Shoalhaven region contains a wide range of natural attractions
that draw large numbers of tourists to the area. Along with its many attractions
the Shoalhaven is home to the Jervis Bay Marine Park one of only
three marine parks in NSW.
Jervis Bay is one of the true gems of the NSW south east region
and its value to Australia has been recognized by its National Park classification.
Its breathtaking beauty, its rich cultural and natural significance has
long been recognized and appreciated by locals and visitors alike. The
Bay reputedly has the clearest waters and whitest sands in the country.
(some say the world!)
The beautiful blue waters are home to pods of bottle nose dolphins and
the opportunity to sight these graceful locals is one of the major features
that make this area a magnet for lovers of nature. Whale sightings are
frequent in and around the Bay. Many people come to cruise these famous
waters and no one goes home disappointed.

Bay.
By Sea Kayak you will be able to explore perfect beach after perfect beach
- some accessible only by water.
Jervis Bay offers some of the most diversified scuba diving along
the Australian east coast, regarded by many as the alternate dive site
to the Great Barrier Reef. The Bay is truly one of the most natural oases
along the New South Wales coast. Protected by towering sandstone cliffs
and fed by oceanic currents, its close proximity to the Continental Shelf
ensures nutrient rich water and rare visitors such as Sunfish, Marlin,
Tuna and even the occasional Blue Shark.
The rocky cliffs continue below the surface, forming ledges, caves and
rocky outcrops. These formations provide the ultimate accommodation for
approximately 250 species of fish; including giant Australian Cuttlefish,
Port Jackson Sharks, Octopus, Weedy sea dragons, a wide variety of Rays
and other bottom dwelling sharks.
Within the Bay, there are extensive Sea grass Meadows, which range
from 2 metres to 12 metres. They protect juvenile fish and crustaceans
as well as acting as a filter giving us clear water.
White sandy beaches adjoin thick unspoilt bush with the occasional small
rain forest less than 200 metres from the shore. Kangaroos can be seen
on some of the beaches in the mornings and dolphins are regular friends.
Two small rivers feed Jervis Bay - Moona Moona Creek and Currumbene
Creek. These are shrouded by mangroves and sea grass, which again filter
the water. Large Black Stingrays up to 2 metres in diameter can be seen
gliding along these waterways.
The Bay boasts some of the most
professional dive operations in Australia, for the novice to the professional,
Jervis Bay's specialty operators offer every thing, from intimate full day
and overnight charters, to shark cage diving expeditions.
Being 2 1/2 hours south of Sydney,
Jervis Bay has year round popularity. Activities that can be enjoyed
include; jet-ski hire, dolphin watch and whale watching cruises, sailing,
swimming, fishing, exploring the coast, bush and beach walks, tours, lazing
in the sun, and of course, Scuba Diving.

Bay; Huskisson, Callala Bay, Callala Beach, Myola, Vincentia and Hyams
Beach. All offering their own unique attractions and accommodation.
